Syrian Crisis<br />

8 years of war in Syria have been causing several difficulties<br />

to the population. More than half has been uprooted: 5.5<br />

million Syrian became refugees in other countries and 6.6<br />

million internally displaced.<br />

The day-to-day life of the local population is marked by<br />

lack of access to medical assistance; an estimated 492<br />

attacks on medical facilities has been reported since the<br />

beginning of the war.<br />
