Syrian refugees in Turkey
Turkey initially requested humanitarian assistance for Syrian refugees in Turkey through EADRCC on 13 April 2012 and the final report for this operation was published on 17 December 2013. By June 2014, the number of Syrian refugees in 22 temporary protection centers has reached up to 220.000 people, while the number of Syrians outside these centers was estimated to be around 800.000 people.
In light of this background, Turkey decided to resubmit an international call for humanitarian assistance. EADRCC has received the request for assistance from Turkey on 30 June 2014. As of October 2015, 258.612 Syrians are sheltered in 25 Temporary Protections Centers (TPCs) and the total number of refugees in Turkey is about 2 million.
