Expulsion was aimed at reducing number of refugees in Istanbul, the nation's economic hub. FMTNews

ISTANBUL: Turkey said Friday it had expelled more than 40,000 refugees living in Istanbul and sent them back to the provinces where they were initially registered.

The country hosts some 3.6 million Syrian refugees – more than any other country – though technically they are only under “temporary protection” because the government does not offer them formal refugee status. The Istanbul governor’s office said 42,888 migrants were rounded up by police and sent back to their assigned provinces between July and October, without specifying their nationalities.

Turkey has faced limited social problems despite the refugee influx from the eight-year conflict in its southern neighbour.
