Syrian Refugees Continue to Flood into Jordan

The World

Jordan has been innundated with refugees from Syria.

Some 150,000 Syrians have fled the fighting back home, and Jordan’s infrastructure is stretched thin.

Reporter Dale Gavlak reports from the border, where a new tent camp has opened up.

Refugees say it’s inadequate and dangerous.
