The U.N. refugee agency has said the number of Syrian refugees seeking its help now tops a quarter-million
-- and could be far higher. Turkey, which supports the Syrian opposition in its fight against President Bashar Assad's regime, has maintained an "open door" policy for Syrians fleeing the violence. Turkey has spent more than $300 million on the refugee crisis and is building three new camps, raising the total number of camps to 14.
