Syrian troops 'raid' Palestinian refugee camp
- 12 years ago
The Syrian army stormed the Yarmouk Palestinian refugee camp, as well as the neighbouring district of al Hajar al Aswad, trying to push back anti-Assad forces. The southern part of Damascus remains a stronghold for the rebels. They launched an all-out offensive on the capital in July, before retreating to the suburbs. Al Jazeera's Hashem Al Helbarra reports.
