Dozens of patients and companions from Gaza are camping outside the Prime Minister's office in Ramallah, demanding continued housing and rental allowances after the Ministry of Social Development halted support, Shehab Wire reported. The protesters are seeking to restore assistance that had previously covered their accommodation while receiving medical treatment in the West Bank city.
The Authority's withdrawal of aid leaves Gaza patients undergoing treatment in Ramallah without housing support, forcing them to remain encamped at government headquarters to press their case for resumed assistance.
