The report comes as the United Nations says the official number of Syrian refugees is now more than 1.3 million. The U.N.’s refugee coordinator for Syria said a massive aid effort is being threatened by funding shortfall.

Panos Moumtzis: “As of today, we have reached the 1,300,000 Syrian refugees registered, all with appointments, in the neighboring countries. This is a significant increase, if you think that today, one year ago, 12 months ago, the actual figure was 30,000. So, in 12 months we have gone from 30,000 Syrian refugees to 1,300,000. There is an acute shortfall of $700 million, while we have exceeded the planning figure. We have reached a point where we feel we are at a breaking point.”
