Up to 5.3 million people in
Syria may have been made homeless by the devastating earthquake which rocked
the region this week, a United Nations official has said.
“As many as 5.3 million people in Syria may have been left homeless
by the earthquake,” the Syria representative of the UN high commissioner for
refugees, Sivanka Dhanapala, told a news briefing.
He said the UN estimated that 5.37 million people affected by the
quake will need shelter assistance across the country.
“That is a huge number and comes to a population already suffering
mass displacement,” he said.
“For Syria, this is a crisis within a crisis. We’ve had economic
shocks, COVID and are now in the depths of winter.”
