The humanitarian situation in Syria is rapidly deteriorating, the European Union's top aid official warned on Wednesday, saying the number of refugees is growing by about 2,000 people a day, according to dpa. In recent weeks, the number of refugees has been growing rapidly, according to the EU's top humanitarian aid commissioner, Kristalina Georgieva. Georgieva, the EU's humanitarian aid commissioner, told reporters in Brussels that it must be clear to "the government of Syria and the opposition fighters that killing civilians and killing humanitarian workers - being obstacles to delivering aid - is a war crime that is not going to be left unnoticed." Georgieva also urged the international community "to come together and unite on the need to protect the principles of international humanitarian law."
