Characteristics of Syrian refugees' migration

Now I live like a vagrant, without my own home and residence.

Atme refugee camp, managed by the United Nations, was officially displaced and overcrowded. Settlements like this are growing exponentially as the Syrian regime tries to recapture the territory of the province, and Idlib is the last rebel stronghold in Syria. The recent attacks caused the largest displacement in the country during the nine-year civil war. According to the United Nations estimate, 800,000 people have been displaced since February 1, and more than 1, 700 civilians have been killed in the fighting since April. Atum camp is in no one lives. The United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) estimates that three quarters of the 3 million people in Idlib are women and children, and 654.38+200,000 children are in extreme need, with food, medicine and water in short supply.

However, aid organizations say that the biggest threat to life at present is the lack of shelter. With the temperature reaching the lowest level for many years and falling below zero at night, people are burning toxic waste bundles to keep warm. It is reported that some people have frozen to death. Although the United Nations is sending tents and first aid kits to the border areas, it has no resources to help everyone. According to the data of the United Nations, only 65,438+037,000 displaced people have entered the official camps that are in short supply, and another 85,000 people live in informal settlements such as tents. Others hide in abandoned cars, destroyed buildings and trees, or are forced to take risks outdoors. The Operations Coordinator of MSF in Syria said that many people have been displaced for the second or third time, so they no longer travel with tents and resources. They came to the camp without shelter. They didn't have their own tent, so they were turned away. ?

In addition to the cold, the ground in Syria has become very muddy. Children in the camp are playing in muddy soil, but humidity means that respiratory infections are common. The lack of non-food also means that few people can keep warm, cook or keep clean at home, and the bad weather makes it difficult for rescue organizations to help in air strikes. At the same time, the conflict between the Syrian army and the Turkish army is trying to ease the regime's attack, stop the influx of immigrants, and bring the two countries closer to the conflict than during the civil war. Turkish President Erdogan said in June+February, 5438 that Turkey is already home to 3.6 million refugees, and it faces economic difficulties and cannot cope with the new wave of refugees from Syria.
