What is Syrian Refugee Crisis?
12 million
Syrians have
fled their
homes
because of
conflict; half
are children.
4 million
Syrians are
refugees;
most are in
Turkey,
Lebanon, and
Jordan.
More than
700,000 Syrian
refugees and
other
migrants
risked their
lives this year
to travel to
Europe.
It is the
migration of
millions of
Syrian
people due to
political
persecution
and civil
wars in their
country.

• Since the Syrian civil war began, more than 240,000 people have been killed,
including 12,000 children
Violence
• Within Syria, healthcare, education systems, and other infrastructure have been
destroyed; the economy is shattered.
Collapsed Infrastructure
• Syrian children have witnessed extreme violence and brutality
Children’s safety
Why Syrians are fleeing: Three reasons

How it all started?
• The Arab Spring inspired the Syrian people to take to the
streets in peaceful demonstration against the Assad’s
dictatorial regime.
• The government responded fiercely, torturing, killing, and
shooting at the protesters. The situation escalated to a civil
war.
• Syria is now divided into territory occupied by the regime,
rebel fighters, and Islamic extremists. The war is still raging
today.

Many Countries have given refuge to the
Syrians, majority of which are residing in
neighbouring countries like Jordan, Turkey ,
and Lebanon.
The Arab States of Persian Gulf- Saudi
Arabia, Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, Oman and
UAE; have accepted ZERO Syrian refugees.
Many Syrian refugees have taken refuge in
asylums in Europe, as a consequence of
which, enormous pressure was put on their
border states.
The Statistics of the Crisis
Germany is taking eight million Syrian
refugees, more than the entire European
Union took in 2014.

Syrian Refugee Crisis has
been cited as the worst
Humanitarian Crisis in the
world today. The crisis in
Syria has affected more
than 12 million people-
more than those affected
by Hurricane Katrina, the
Haiti Earthquake and the
Indian Ocean Tsunami
combined!

•This crisis could be stopped only if the people and the
nation change their outlook towards refugees and

money and shelter to Syrian refugees in India.
