Hassan Abdel Hamid, a member of the Political Bureau of the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine (DFLP), called for a new strategic vision for the situation of UNRWA, in light of its financial crisis, which is no longer a small and transitory crisis that is ended by a small amount of funding, as the Agency's financial deficit is about $ 750 million, which foreshadows the stop of providing of its services to refugees in its five areas of operation and the lay off its employees and workers, due to its inability to pay their salaries, which will expose the refugee community and their situation to instability and threaten their security.

Abdel Hamid praised the courageous role played by UNRWA's Commissioner-General , Pierre Krähenbühl and his assistants in the Agency's areas of operation, also he praised the willingness of Palestinian staff to continue their services and challenge the financial siege policy, imposed by on UNRWA, through reserving funds that are allocated for its budget. And he called on the Palestinian official leadership to give this important and sensitive file the necessary attention, because it is not only affects the Palestinian refugees' right in the lowest limit to a decent life, but also their national rights, including their right to return to their homes and properties .

Abdel Hamid pointed to the severe living conditions suffered by the Palestinian refugees in Syria, in light of the crisis that has affected the country, especially those who were forced to flee their homes and lost their sources of livelihood and properties , as well as the refugees in Lebanon, in Nahr al-Bared in particular, and all camps under the unjust procedures and laws that besiege them and deny their right to work in dozens of professions, which has made the sea, for them, as the only way to survive with all its dangers of inevitable death.

He praised the steadfastness of the Palestinian refugees and their adherence to their right to return and rejecting all alternative solutions, stressing that they will oppose the policies of US administration, and will drop its project against the rights of our people as they dropped other projects, calling for mobilizing efforts and energies to organize a massive movement in refugee camps and residential communities , against the plans and projects with the aim of canceling their right of return.
