Tens of thousands of people are fleeing Aleppo as Syrian troops, backed by Russian air force, close in the city. Most of these refugees arrive to the Syrian-Turkish border where they live in tents awaiting to be admitted into Turkey.
30,000 people are estimated to be stranded at the Syrian border according to the UN following intensified fights in Aleppo in the past few days. Their wish is to stay safe and to live in the camps set in Turkey.
