The Syrian Tragedy!
Excerpts from the story of the humanitarian crisis in Syria in recent years
2011 Was The Beginning!
- The Syrian conflict began in 2011 and has created one of the worst humanitarian crises of our time, with more than half of the country’s population killed or forced to flee their homes.
- Syrians are struggling for a safe life for themselves and their children, whether inside Syria in destroyed cities, in displacement camps, or in border countries such as Turkey and others, while others risk migrating to Europe in search of a better future.
- When we look at the results of the conflict and the wounded, detainees, and others who lost limbs or even lives, and the millions of displaced and refugees, in addition to the economic and social effects, the effects of the conflict seem overwhelming.
Highlights On The Humanitarian Crisis In Syria
Many questions about the Syrian humanitarian crisis may be on the minds of those interested, we have collected some of them here in a brief manner.
Anti-government demonstrations began in March 2011 as part of the Arab Spring, but peaceful protests quickly escalated after violent repression, and armed opposition groups began to respond.
Thousands of Syrians are displaced within their country every day, often deciding to flee at the last minute after seeing their areas subjected to heavy shelling and the resulting injuries or casualties. Displaced families are forced to leave their homes and belongings behind and save their children, then immediately begin an unknown journey in search of a safe place away from the shelling and war, either fleeing within Syria or seeking refuge in border countries or European countries in search of a better life.
The war has left hundreds of thousands of victims in the past years, and destroyed many crowded cities, ruining livelihoods and making providing basic food a daily challenge facing Syrians, not to mention the psychological effects that most Syrians suffer from, especially children and women.
