Syrian refugee camps
- 3.5 million people in Syria need humanitarian assistance
- 4.3 million Syrians are refugees, and 6.6 million are displaced within Syria; half are children
- most Syrian refugees remain in the Middle East, in Turkey, Lebanon, Jordan, Iraq, and Egypt: slightly more then 10% of the refugees have travelled to Europe
- Children affected by the Syrian conflict are at risk f becoming ill, malnourished, abused, or exploited. Millions have been forced to quite school.
Winter is coming: Refugees in settlements have fewer resourced then ever before. They need adequate food, warm clothes, shoes, blankets, heaters, and fuels.
Violence: Since the Syrian civil war began, 320,000 people
have been killed, including nearly 12,000 children. About 1.5 million people
have been wounded or permanently disabled, according to the Syrian Observatory
for Human Rights. The war has become more deadly since foreign powers joined
the conflict.
Collapsed infrastructure: Within Syria, healthcare,
education systems, and other infrastructure have been destroyed; the economy is
shattered.
