Turkey is struggling to accommodate the overwhelming numbers of Syrian and Iraqi refugees who have entered its borders to escape conflict and persecution. The devastating 7.8 magnitude earthquake that struck the region in 2023 only worsened the crisis. The earthquake destroyed countless homes and buildings, killed thousands of people, and displaced millions more.
While the Turkish government has provided many refugees and displaced people with tents, food, and medical assistance, its resources are beginning to dwindle. Countless men, women, and children are still struggling to survive.
