we were brought to this city to see how the syrian government and kremlin backers say they give refuge. one government sanctioned aid worker told me how and why these people are here. >> what have these people been through to drive them to become refugees? >> these people don't have any homes, don't have any family. it's so hard. i hear stuff from kids about killing, about death, you know, it's hard. thai feel safe here. they don't have the money for the trip to europe. anybody can do it. it's the other side. >> is that why these refugees are being protected essentially by president assad because they couldn't afford to go to europe? >> no, i don't want so say they president assad, they just with didn't want to leave.
