The airstrikes in Syria appear to be causing problems for the Islamic State.

CCTV America’s Asieh Namdar interviewed Daryl Grisgraber, a Senior Advocate for the Middle East at Refugees International, an independent humanitarian organization here in Washington.

“Inside Syria people lack clean water, they have no electricity a lot of the time, sometimes no communications, there’s no proper shelte,r and of course they spend 24 hours a day at risk of being caught in the conflict,” Grisgraber said.

She added that the most important thing that refugees need is to be able to escape Syria and cross into other countries.

“Airstrikes tend to have humanitarian consequences no matter how “surgical” they might be and so a lot of the impact is that that people will have to be displaced again and keep moving,” Grisgraber said.
