More than one hundred persons became refugees in Syria as a result of disturbances

More than one hundred persons became refugees in Syria as a result of disturbances.

These data were given by the Guardian newspaper with reference to the Humanitarian Aid and Civil Protection department of the European Commission. Its officers counted about 30 thousand of people, who escaped from Syria to the neighbouring countries and about 70 thousand of internally displaced persons. 

The representatives of the European Commission also accuse both the governmental forces and the armed oppositionists of the fact that they open fire on the cars of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement.
