Syrian Refugee Migration
Due to the numerous atrocities being committed by the different factions, as well as the nation being in a state of war, many Syrians are fleeing in hopes of escaping the tragedy that befalls their homeland. According to UN reports, about 7,000,000 Syrians are displaced and more than 12,000,000 need humanitarian aid. The ability of humanitarian groups is being inhibited by the policies of the various factions. Many aid groups are being targeted and unable to send aid to besieged areas. These issues are forcing refugees to flee towards countries that will give them asylum.
