OPINION: The UN should give refugees passports

FILE PHOTO: A displaced Syrian woman, who fled violence after the Turkish offensive in Syria, carries her baby upon arrival at a refugee camp in Bardarash on the outskirts of DohukIn this photo released by the Syrian official news agency SANA, a damaged building targeted by Israeli missile strikes is seen in Qudsaya suburb, western the capital Damascus, Syria, Wednesday, Nov. 20, 2019.

In just the past two weeks, we have learned about more executions, beatings, and war crimes against civilians committed by Turkish-backed forces. These atrocities will likely add to the estimated 6.5 million displaced Syrians. Most refugees lack basic identification documents, and even those who manage to escape the country — to Turkey, say — are at risk of being deported back to Syria. In all this back and forth, human lives are being lost as horrific crimes are committed.
