swings into action to evacuate all the civilians trapped in
the area. The Security Council has already convened an
emergency meeting on Monday but they need to be quicker.
Cooperation with the Free Syrian Army and other opposi-
tion groups could be a way to help the civilians, which
include some 3,500 children. The head of the UN agency for
Palestinian refugees, Pierre Krähenbuhl, calls the situation
"beyond inhumane" amid reports of Syrian regime forces
dropping barrel bombs on Yarmouk.
Under another scenario, a unit of Russian army could
supervise the evacuation of civilians out of the area, with the
help of humanitarian groups. Regime forces wouldn't oppose
Russians doing the job; neither the IS would want to open a
new front.
Another problem these people face is the fact that they
almost have no place to go. Jordan, Lebanon and Egypt have
banned Palestinian refugees from Syria, and they cannot go to
Iraq as most of it is under IS control. Fortunately there is always
Turkey, ready to welcome people in need. An urgent statement
from Turkish officials, confirming the welcoming attitude of
Turkey would be a great move at the moment.
The world needs to immediately start the process of getting
the innocent civilians out of there. Do not forget: there are children,
women, sick, injured people, old people and they need our help.
Put yourselves in their shoes and do your best to help them.
