Syria Crisis: One Million Refugee Children
UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency
Description
One million Syrian children have now been registered as refugees, forced from their homeland by a war that is well into its third year. Children make up half of all refugees from the Syria conflict, according to UNHCR. Most have arrived in Lebanon, Jordan, Turkey, Iraq and Egypt. Increasingly, Syrians are fleeing to North Africa and Europe. Latest figures show that of the one million Syrian refugees under the age of 18, some 740,000 are children under the age of 11.
