Over 10 artists returned to the Yarmouk camp south of Damascus in recent days, saying that they hope to depict their dreams of future over the war-torn ruins where they once lived. The Yarmouk camp, established in 1950s for the Palestinian refugees expelled from their land by Israel, is in fact not an official refugee camp. The country's governmental force and its allies launched a several-weeks-long military offensive on the camps earlier this year before they declared the regain of the entire Yarmouk camp in May 2018.
