The Syrian Refugee Crisis in jordan

As the prolonged conflict in Syria moves in to its fifth year, nearly 12 million Syrians, have been displaced and forced to flee their homes. As civil war continues in Syria, it has been predicted that the numbers of refugees fleeing to Jordan will continue to rise. According to the UNHCR, Syrians are the largest refugee population in Jordan. In fact, 1 in 13 people in Jordan is a Syrian refugee.
