1755 GMT: Humanitarian Aid
The European Commission has announced an additional 65 million Euros ($84 million) in aid for refugees and internally displaced Syrians, warning the crisis is "already at breaking point".
The announcement came as humanitarian aid commissioner Kristalina Georgieva visited the Zaatari refugee camp in Jordan.
"The more atrocities and fighting go on in Syria, the more people run. There are no indications whatsoever that this...is going to go down," Georgieva said after the visit.
She continued, "We have to dig deep into our pockets (to help the Syrians) because the worst is yet to come. The crisis is beyond humanitarian response. We need to do more and we need to do more in a better way."
The UN humanitarian office has put the number of refugees at 1.4 million and displaced persons at 4.25 million --- together, the figures are about one-quarter of Syria's 22.5 million.

Turkish leaders, while declaring "we have to be very careful and patient", have accused Damascus of a double car bombing in the Turkish town Reyhanli that killed 43 people and injured 140.
The blast occurred on Saturday in a crowded area of town in the southern province of Hatay, a few kilometres from the main border crossing into Syria.
Turkish Deputy Foreign Minister Bulent Arinc said investigators had established links between a Syrian intelligence agency of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and the car bombs:
We know that the people taking refuge in Hatay have become targets for the Syrian regime. We think of them as the usual suspects when it comes to planning such a horrific attack.
