The Rukban displacement camp in Syria, known for its isolation and suffering, has finally closed, with the last families returning home. Established in 2014 amid the civil war, the camp housed thousands fleeing violence, yet faced severe neglect as aid was often prohibited. Over the years, Rukban became emblematic of the broader humanitarian crisis caused by the war. With the fall of Bashar al-Assad's regime, families began to leave as a new interim government promised to restore Syria. This closure signifies a potential turning point for the displaced and the nation itself.
The Rukban displacement camp marked the end of a tragic chapter in Syria's civil war, highlighting the suffering and isolation endured by its residents since 2014.
Rukban was not just a camp, it was the triangle of death that bore witness to the cruelty of siege and starvation, where the regime left people to face their painful fate.
