Turkey Assault Could Displace 400,000 In Syria, Says UN 'Concerns remain grave around the risks facing thousands of vulnerable displaced persons, including women and children...'

But by Sunday it warned of further displacements from rural areas around Tell Abiad and Ras al-Ain with latest estimates “surpassing 130,000 people”.Most of the displaced had reached relatives or host communities, but growing numbers were arriving at collective shelters, including in schools.

The UN warned of the impact of any further escalation of Turkey’s offensive or of sudden shifts in control over territory. “Concerns remain grave around the risks facing thousands of vulnerable displaced persons, including women and children in various camps,” it said, pointing to Al-Hol, a camp holding relatives of IS suspects that lies outside the area targeted by Turkey.

The UN said that there were many other humanitarian consequences to the military assault, which is being conducted on multiple fronts along the border. It also voiced concern for the safety of the staff of the 113 UN and other international aid organisations operating in the area and had cut international staff numbers to 200 from normal levels of 384.
