The European Commission will give €28 million in humanitarian aid to support Syrians displaced by the conflict in their host communities in Jordan, European Commissioner for Humanitarian Aid Christos Stylianides announced yesterday on a visit to Jordan and Lebanon.
 
“The coming winter will bring additional hardship to the most vulnerable Syrian refugees in Jordan so we are stepping up our humanitarian aid,” Stylianides said. “The funding will help cover basic needs of refugees and host communities such as health care, clean water, shelter, rent and education.”
 
On his visit, the Commissioner will discuss the growing needs of Syrian refugees with government officials and humanitarian partner organisations, visiting refugee camps and seeing the humanitarian situation first hand.
