Support for Syrian refugees outside camps in Jordan halted since April
The World Food Programme warns that aid to Syrian refugees in host communities in Jordan has been halted since April 2026 due to severe funding shortages. Food assistance was provided to around 81,000 refugees in camps during July 2026, while support for the host community remains suspended. Refugees in the camps receive 15 Jordanian dinars per month per person, which is insufficient to meet their nutritional needs. The program requires $28.6 million to cover its needs in Jordan until January 2027. The total number of registered refugees is 370,200, with 210,308 of them having returned to Syria since December 2024. Additionally, the program is requesting $2.7 million to support school nutrition programs for approximately 510,000 students during the 2026-2027 academic year.
