- A girl looks through abandoned belongings among the rubble on the streets of the Palestinian Yarmuk camp, on the southern outskirts of the Syrian capital Damascus, on November 25, 2020 as families visit the destroyed residential district to inspect their abandoned apartments and register with the authorities with the hope of eventually returning to their homes. – In May 2018, the Syrian government retook the Palestinian camp of Yarmuk and adjacent suburbs after a pulverising assault that lasted nearly a month to expel jihadists who controlled the area for years. That placed the regime in full control of the entire capital for the first time since 2012. Yarmuk is a camp turned into a bustling neighbourhood before the seven-year civil war in Syria, with most of its residents of Palestinian origin. (Photo by LOUAI BESHARA / AFP)
