Germany alone hosts around 59% of them. Across Europe, Syrians have usually been provided with international protection status. However, procedures tend to be long, which is why many Syrians have taken dangerous routes to reach the continent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>By Stella Youssef&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>QAMISHLI, Syria (North Press) &#8211;&nbsp;The number of individuals applying for asylum in Germany experienced a significant upsurge in 2023, reaching a total of 351,915, which marks a notable increase of 51.1 percent compared to 2022.
