As of 31 December 2015, some 1.069 million Syrian refugees are registered with UNHCR and are living in over 1,750 locations across Lebanon. Registration remained suspended throughout the fourth quarter of 2015 following instruction from the Government of Lebanon issued in May. Syrians approaching UNHCR for protection and assistance are counselled about the suspension of registration, and have their vulnerabilities assessed so that their critical needs can be addressed.
