Al-Qaeda affiliated rebels in Syria have taken control of Yarmouk camp, ceasing the flow of aid to tens of thousands of civilians who are trapped and living in desperate conditions.
Jabhat al-Nusra, a rebel group that swears its loyalty to al-Qaeda, has seized checkpoints inside primarily Palestinian neighbourhood of Damascus, ending a fragile ceasefire that was being negotiated by the regime and the opposition, residents of Yarmouk said.
“A small number of people had started to be allowed out of Yarmouk under the agreement,” said Ziad, a resident from Yarmouk who spoke under the condition his name be changed. “Now al-Nusra has stormed the camp and taken over the checkpoints inside and the agreement is finished.”
