UN Refugee Agency High Commissioner António Guterres described the Syrian crisis this week as the great tragedy of the century, a "disgraceful humanitarian calamity with suffering and displacement unparalleled in recent history."

UNHCR spokesperson Andrej Mahecic describes a typical refugee's journey from the stricken country and how their health needs are addressed when they reach refugee camps and host communities in Jordan, Lebanon, and Turkey.
