    Notes
    • "October 2017"--Table of contents page.
    • "This report was researched and written by Bill Frelick, director of the Refugee Rights Program at Human Rights Watch."--Page 27.
    • "This report documents that during the first five months of 2017, Jordanian authorities deported about 400 registered Syrian refugees each month. In addition, approximately 300 registered refugees each month returned to Syria during that time under circumstances that appeared to be voluntary. Another estimated 500 refugees each month returned to Syria under circumstances that are unclear. Jordan has hosted more than 654,500 Syrian refugees since 2001. Human Rights Watch has repeatedly called for other countries to increase their assistance to Jordan and to resettle greater numbers of Syrian refugees living in Jordan."--Publisher's description.
