Syrian aid organizations face unprecedented funding crisis and forced to scale down operations.

As the Syrian crisis enters its 13th year, aid organizations are struggling to draw attention to the worsening conditions faced by Syrian refugees, particularly in neighboring countries like Lebanon and Turkey. The annual donor conference hosted by the European Union aims to raise $11.2 billion for humanitarian aid, but pledges are expected to fall short. The World Food Program has already announced cuts to aid for 2.5 million people in Syria due to an "unprecedented funding crisis." Meanwhile, anti-refugee rhetoric has surged in neighboring countries, and authorities have imposed curfews and restrictions on refugees.
