It has been a year since the UN’s Zaatari refugee camp was set up to accommodate Syrians escaping the war.
The camp, near the Jordanian-Syrian border, initially created as a temporary shelter for up to 60,000 people, has become Jordan’s fourth-largest city and the world’s second-largest refugee camp behind Dadaab in eastern Kenya.
