Palestinians just outside of Syria, in the Damascus Suburbs, are dying. Specifically children. The refugees have no access to food and lots of people risk their lives to go and pick food from nearby fields. Lots of trucks with the supplies needed to save lots of lives are just miles away, but the Syrian military will not let them go in because the government refuses to help the Palestinians. Most children become so undernourished because the most important time to have nutrients is from new born to toddler because that's when a child grows the most. Moms can't help their children because their breast milk is dried up because their undernourished too.
This is absolutely awful especially since these children are helpless and their parents cannot help but watch as their children die. No parent wants to see that, but they do, while also worrying about themselves. The way of life their living is certainly not a desired one, and you should be able to choose your future, but instead Syria's government is choosing it for them.

Wow I feel so sorry for the Palestinians.
ReplyDeleteI think it's unfair that the Syrian government isn't letting the people have any food. Yes, I understand that they are also having many hardships, but there is food in close proximity that can be spared.
ReplyDeletePoor babies. They can go out and feed themselves, and their parents just have to sit back and watch their whole family slowly fade away.
ReplyDeleteThis is not good.They should be able to get the supplies they NEED.
