Support for Syrian refugees outside camps halted
The World Food Programme stated that food assistance for Syrian refugees in host communities in Jordan remains suspended since April 2026 due to a lack of funding. In July, the program provided aid to about 81,000 refugees inside the camps, while assistance to the host communities continued to be halted. The current aid, amounting to 15 dinars per person per month, is insufficient to meet the full nutritional needs. The program requires $28.6 million over the next six months to address the needs of refugees in Jordan, whose registered number stood at 370,200 as of July 2026. The report also indicated that 210,308 Syrian refugees returned to Syria between December 2024 and August 2026. Additionally, the program needs $2.7 million to provide healthy school meals to approximately 510,000 students during the 2026-2027 academic year.
