Palestinians demonstrate in front of the offices of the Palestine Liberation Organisation (PLO) in Ramallah to protest the death of Palestinians in the Yarmuk refugee camp in Syria, from malnutrition, demanding Palestinian president Mahmud Abbas intervene on January 4, 2014. At least 15 Palestinians have died of hunger since September in the besieged refugee camp in the Syrian capital Damascus, the UN agency for Palestinian refugees told AFP on December 30. Some 20,000 Palestinians are trapped in the camp with limited food and medical supplies. AFP PHOTO / ABBAS MOMANI
