Iraq Violence Displaces More Iraqis to Turkey, Jordan.

Iraq violence pushes refugees to Turkey, Jordan, aid officials say: 
"During the first two weeks of January, 3,000 Iraqis registered with the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) office in Turkey, according to John Young, assistant Representative for UNHCR in Ankara. "This is the largest influx of Iraqis we have seen in three years," he said.
There has also been a sharp increase in the number of refugees reaching Jordan, where the UNHCR registered 1,302 Iraqis in December alone, compared with some 4,200 in the whole of 2012 and an average of 200-250 a month in the first half of 2013.
“We have seen a fivefold increase in Iraqis fleeing to Jordan, and with the security situation in Iraq, we only expect these numbers to continue,” said Andrew Harper, UNHCR Representative in Jordan"
