Syria's Exodus


 


Syria's ExoduS
What is happening to Syria? Why is ISIS attacking Syria? Why are Syrians fleeing away from their country?  Syria is in a civil war with ISIS fighting as well. ISIS is a terrorist group of Syrian people that are Muslim. The ISIS are also beheading people that don’t listen to their demands.


The people in Syria have to escape Syria because of ISIS. ISIS is making the Syrian’s leave the country so they can take over Syria.    This is called a civil war. Civil war is when you fight their own people. ISIS is doing that to Syria. Children are suffering because of this civil war. The children have to survive their long Exodus. The children suffer most are; the babies and the toddlers. This can be a crisis because the ISIS can dress up like a Syrian refugee and start killing people when they are in the other countries. That's why some countries won’t  accept Syrian refugees.  


The Syrians are fleeing away to get away from the civil war. They are fleeing away from Syria in ferries, trains or even just walking! The Syrians are crossing the borders by walking into the countries like; Germany, Austria, Greece, France,  Belgium, Hungary and most of the countries in Europe. The refugees of Syria also take ferries to go to the borders of the other countries. They catch trains and most of them go to Germany. Most of them are going to Germany because the Germans feel guilty of killing heaps of Jews, so they are taking in lots of Syrian refugees.


This is a big issue to these other countries where Syrians preferred to go. They provide them home's, security, food, education and jobs. Will they be able to provide them ?  So if you don’t want them to travel please defeat ISIS.
