In inhumane conditions, the death claims about 20 children in al-Hool camp and on the road to it, and the international Organizations are responsible for their deaths and for the unknown fate of more than 37000 people who have taken it as a refuge from ISIS areas

The Syrian tragedy continues to recur with different forms, circulating between the Syrian areas, escalating, but remain constant, and among this series of tragedy there is a new episode took over the scene, namely al-Hool camps in the countryside of al-Hasaka Province near the Syrian-Iraqi border, and in the details Obtained by the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights: al-Hool camp in the southeastern countryside of al-Hasaka city includes about 37000 displaced Syrians and refugees from Iraq, in addition to refugees of various nationalities, the majority of them are of families of members of the “Islamic State” Organization who arrived in the camp during the past months, where the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights monitored until the end of August 2018 the presence of more than 40000 people including more than 30 000 Iraqis, who returned to Iraq after coordination with the Iraqi government by the democratic self-administration and the Syria Democratic Forces, while the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights monitored the entiry of about 36500 persons since the beginning of the military operations on the 10th of September 2018, of whom about 25000 remained inside the camp, and the Syrian Observatory for Human Right eventually counted more than 37000 IDPs (internally displaced persons) and refugees in al-Hool camp, including more than 24000 of the Iraqi nationality, and the reliable sources confirmed that many of the displaced people have returned to their areas which were controlled by the Syria Democratic Forces, and some of them headed to areas of presence of their relatives in the countryside of al-Hasakah, Deir Ezzor, al-Raqqah and other areas, while the other part remained in the camp, also numbers of the Iraqi refugees returned to their country after coordination with the Iraqi government.

The Syrian Observatory has monitored since September 2018 the arrival of displaced people on board of vehicles and trucks provided by the Syria Democratic Forces to transport them to the camps, and the transfer takes place initially by transporting them to camps away from the battlefronts, while the Organization’s members are taken out of the people and transported to detention centers, while the civilians and families of ISIS members are transported to al-Hool camp in the al-Hasaka countryside, also the Syrian Observatory has counted since early December 2018 the death of 19 children including 8 Iraqis, where 9 of them died as a result of burns and fire in camps because of the use of primitive heating means, while others died as a result of poor health conditions and the lack of health care, as a result of harsh weather conditions, while the Syrian Observatory learned that the remaining 10 were children who died after getting out of the “Islamic State” Organization’s enclave at the east bank of Euphrates River, because of health conditions they suffered within the enclave and what they were suffering of different diseases and health conditions, some of them died during his transfer to the camp and others died in the camp, after the deterioration of their health due to the lack of enough medicines and medical staff to save them, after what they suffered of hunger, sickness, and inhumane conditions, and reliable sources told the Syrian Observatory that there are many people who suffer from diseases caused by the harsh conditions they have experienced in the enclave of the last Organization, and due to lack of health care and severe shortage of medicines, food, and appropriate healthy conditions.

We at the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, and in the light of the tragic circumstances of tens of thousands of people in a camp at the Syrian-Iraqi border, which lacks sufficient supplies, we hold the United Nations responsible for the lives of these displaced people regardless of their nature, nationality, or personal condition, especially after the United Nations refused to establish a camp for the internally displaced people near Hajin area, after it was brought to International Coalition by interested and responsible parties, also we hold the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees and all international and regional relief, medical, and humanitarian organizations responsible for the death of about 20 children, due to the great neglect towards the refugees and displaced people in al-Hool camp and in all the camps in al-Hasaka province, where the children, citizens, and the refugees need urgent assistance, as no camera lenses that convey the tragedy will prevent the bad weather, nor will it provide water or food, and we at the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights convey the calls of the population and those suffering from tragic humanitarian situations to the international and active parties; for urgent action to help them effectively, not through statements and declarations the displaced and wandering people do not care about under catastrophic humanitarian conditions.
