Rejected petition Emergency Resettlement in UK for Syrian Refugees following the Earthquake

Launch a Resettlement Scheme for vulnerable Syrian nationals which have lost their livelihoods, homes and families following the 7.8 magnitude earthquake which hit Syrian and Turkiye.

More details

Syrian nationals have suffered greatly due to ongoing conflict under the Assad regime, and have now been affected by a terrible natural disaster. State media in Syria said the death toll in government-held areas had risen to 1,347, up from 1,262. White Helmets civil defence group said another 1,930 deaths had been reported in rebel-held areas in the north-west of the country.
Syrians are deserving of support which they may not be able to access in their country.
