<p>We are aware of reports of alleged harassment of Syrian refugees at a camp near
Suruç, Turkey. We have not made representations on these specific allegations, but
maintain regular dialogue with Turkey on the humanitarian situation in the region.
We recognise the challenges facing Turkey because of the conflicts in Syria and Iraq
and appreciate the Turkish government’s considerable humanitarian efforts in the region.
According to the UN High Commissioner for Refugees Turkey is now hosting more than
1.6 million Syrian refugees and a further 200,000 Iraqi refugees.</p>
