Syrian Ambassador to the United Nations Bashar Jaafari said on Wednesday that Damascus also wants the refugees to leave the Rukban camp and has prepared a convoy of vehicles ready to take them at any time, also stating that the United States must release the refugees.

Russia and Syria have called earlier on the leaders of US troops staying in the At Tanf zone in Syria, to arrive on April 2 to the Jleb crossing point in the Homs province so as to take part in a meeting on dismantling the Rukban refugee camp.
The Rukban camp, which houses some 40,000 displaced people, is located in the south of Syria, near the Jordan border. The area that became a refugee camp for Syrian residents in 2014 is now controlled by the United States.
