Syrian displaced

Currently, around 6.7 million have been displaced inside the country and 5.5 million refugees are being hosted in five neighbouring countries, Mr. Grandi said after a visit to the country.  

Over two days in the field, the High Commissioner met families who told him they’d endured “years of suffering” and are “exhausted.” 

Yet I also witnessed their strength and determination to rebuild their lives”, the UNHCR chief said.  
 

Even as UNHCR and partners, “helped some of the families I met install doors and windows on their partially damaged homes, they still needed water and electricity. They still need schools and hospitals, and they need to make a living. This is a humanitarian imperative.”
