UN official: 3.9 million people have returned to their homes in Syria.
The UN High Commissioner for Refugees for Operations, Anton Les Garcia, confirmed that Syria represents a model of hope, with 3.9 million people returning to their homes.
He noted that the return of this population confirms that forced displacement is not necessarily a fixed fate.
He explained that there are still big challenges for the returnees, mainly securing housing and basic services and providing economic opportunities.
He emphasized that the UN Commission works in cooperation with the government and partners to provide protection, find sustainable solutions and promote self-reliance.
