Infant dies in Rukban camp
An infant died on Thursday (Jan. 3) in the al-Rukban camp on the Syrian-Jordanian border due to the lack of health care and the lack of medical supplies, local social media and activists reported.

The 7 days old infant died after her health deteriorated due to a hepatitis infection following delayed treatment in the UNICEF medical clinic, khaed al-Ali, a media activist in al-Rukban reported on his Facebook page.

Mal al-Sham was not allowed to be transferred to the hospital in Jordan to receive medical treatment.

Last year, several civilians, including children died in al-Rukban camp because they were not allowed to be transferred to the hospital in Jordan to receive medical treatment.

The civil administration of the al-Rukban camp has appealed to provide the forcibly displaced persons in the camp with basic supplies, after the Assad regime denied access of food and medical supplies to the camp.
