Tens of thousands of refugees at Turkish border
However, humanitarian aid convoys and ambulances are moving from Turkey to Syria, which could mean that Ankara has a plan to form a buffer zone at the border that could become a place to group refugees."Our facilities are full, but in the end, these people have nowhere to go, either they will die from the consequences of the bombing, and Turkey will watch a massacre like the rest of the world, or we will open its borders," said Deputy Prime Minister of Turkey Numan Kurtulmus.
He stressed that Ankara is not in a position to say to refugees not to come to the border.
"If we do this, it would mean that we leave them to their own devices to the death," he added.
On Sunday Pope Francis asked that Syrians fleeing the five-year war be helped.
"I am very worried about the fate of civilians caught up in the war in Syria, who are forced to leave everything and to flee from the horrors of war," said the pope in the Vatican.
According to the Turkish deputy prime minister, the worst scenario will see more than one million people move from Aleppo and surrounding cities toward Turkey, where there are now more than 2.5 million Syrians.
Reports from once the largest city in Syria, the cultural and industrial center say that Syrians are losing faith they will be saved and would "rather die at home than finding death somewhere else."
