About 30 Palestinians living in a refugee camp in the desert region along the Iraqi-Syrian border are due to leave for resettlement in Iceland.

The UN refugee agency says the group, mostly women and children, has been living under canvas for the past two years in extremely harsh conditions.

There are about 2,300 Palestinians encamped in the desert region unable to gain entry to Syria.
