After Paris attacks, Syrian refugees shunned
- 9 years ago
Along with hundreds killed and wounded, the Paris attacks have had a multitude of indirect victims - Syrian refugees seeking safety from war.
They are now being shunned stronger than before over fears that terrorists could be mixed in with them.
On Sunday, authorities revealed that at least one of the Paris terrorists entered Europe among the current wave of Syrians.
He had falsely identified himself as a Syrian named Ahmad al Muhammad and was allowed to enter Greece in early October.
Over the weekend, a handful of U.S. governors either opposed taking in any Syrian refugees being relocated as part of a national program or asked that they be particularly scrutinized as potential security threats.
