“Will they reside for us a new camp other than our camp?”, This is how she asked, or Youssef Shreim, and she packs what remains of her goals in the room which was devoted to the association Al -Kafif after being moved from the Jenin camp, 80 days ago.
Umm Yusuf is preparing for a new dispute, after its evacuation and the rest Jenin City North West Bank.
Umm Youssef says that she was informed of the need to evacuate the play that habit it with her family of 6 people, because the students of the association will return to study. Thus, and 25 other families are faced with a new trip, after solutions to house them with official centers.
“We were moved from the camp to the Al -Kafif association, when we did not find a place of life, or by an official authority which provides us with houses, and certain families were moved by their loved ones in the villages surrounding a fetus.”
Temporary
And she continues that “the crisis assigned, and the occupation army destroyed the camp, and we are waiting for their withdrawal from the camp to return home, but if that is delayed, what will we do?”, And that indicates that their presence in the association was a temporary solution, as well as our transfer to a real solution, and the displacement of people with their parents, and she says, “we want a real solution.”
The displaced people suffer from difficult living conditions after the loss of their homes and their goods and their exit from the camp without taking their necessary objectives.
Most of the displaced have lost their job, and they consider that the biggest problem they are currently faced with is to secure “generous housing” worthy of them and their children and to have the simplest elements of life.
Umm Youssef was informed of the supply of two bedrooms with a small kitchen and a bath for his large family, while the youngest family takes a room, “after having a full house, and each has an independent room,” she said.
And this confirms that the new accommodation is not guaranteed either, and it asks officials to have a radical solution represented by “fixed houses” that they do not leave.
High cost
In one of the accommodation in the American Arab League in Jenin, Hammam Abu Sariya lives with his wife and two children, where he was moved to him since the crisis of confrontation between the security services of authority and resistance in Jenin camp about 5 months ago.
Abu Saria is surprised by the news published by officials of the governorate of Jenin and the Palestinian government, on the latter’s effort to provide mobile houses to adapt to the displaced.
“They talk about the media of the supply of 200 houses, while the displacement of the camp is estimated at 18,000, and many others in the circumference of the camp, so how will all be sheltered in these houses?”
Despite the government’s conversation on the preparation of a plan to adapt to the displaced in the Jenin camps andTulkarm In Mobile houses (Caravate), until the occupation army withdrew from the camps, people do not trust the promises of the government.

“We spent months of travel and we have not received any support from the government, we left alone, we lost our homes and our places, and we experienced very difficult circumstances, and we did not find any support from the government, even morally,” added Abu Saria.
“After this time, officials will talk about solutions that are not linked to logic, it is preferable to secure houses for the displaced, these (caravans) are very high and the government suffers from a serious financial crisis, hence the price of mobile houses will be assured.”
According to Abu Saria, the security of “caravans” for around 3,400 families whose houses have been destroyed in the camp can cost the government for about $ 30 million, at a rate of 8 thousand dollars for a house “, and if the government wanted, it would rent a certain number of buildings closed near the university and the accommodation of the occupation moved until the occupation is retiring, and Mobiles, “according to Abu Saria.
The displaced, including Abu Saria, believes that government’s proposals to provide “caravans” are “anesthesia” and save time, and says that “wasting time for a month or two can withdraw, everything that has been proposed is not in accordance with the difficult displacement in which we live, is an attempt to be silent only”.
Not camps
A spokesperson for the Government Information Center, Muhammad Abu Al -Rab, said, in a previous statement, that they sought to provide “caravans” to accommodate the displaced.
He added: “We must balance the people’s need to provide them with generous housing, and that these temporary houses were as if they were new camps, but they present themselves as an image of the usual lack of reality imposed by Israel in the camps, and also retains itself in the plane of the reconstruction of the camps as soon as the occupation is withdrawn.”
In its first step, the government plan requires the supply of mobile houses for the most needy families, in government lands and in a few figures that do not take the new camp. According to Abu Al -Rab, the government seeks to provide the first number of these houses in Palestinian companies that produce it.
For his part, the governor of Jenin Kamal Abu Al -Rab said that a meeting held last Thursday, which included the ministries concerned with representatives of the governors of Jenin and Tulkarm, and services in the camps of Nour Shams, Tulkarm and Jenin, to put the “outings that must be offered to their construction.
He added to Al -jazeera net “NakbaOn the contrary, the term mobile houses has been adopted because it is lighter, so the important thing is that it will be with specific specifications, and so far, we have not adopted the government lands that will be placed, but 3 places have been launched for this.

There are around 3,200 people displaced currently in the Arab League accommodation, and if estimates – according to Abu al -Rab – are forced to leave housing with the return of the university, and some of them can be in the initial government plan to host them in mobile houses.
The Jenin Camp Services Committee had published a statement about a week ago, by which it was interrupted by a boycott of the creation of shelters composed of temporary tents for the displaced and confirmed that it was not part of this proposal.
According to the governor of Jenin Kamal Abu Al -Rab, the Services Committee declared, at a meeting with the government, his approval to “shelter the move in mobile houses according to the vision of the Palestinian government”.
