    >**The couple based their decision to return not only on the fact that it had finally become possible following the overthrow of the Assad government but also because life in Jordan had become harder as her husband, Abu Abbas, struggled to find work. They are among more than 270,000 Syrian refugees who have so far returned to the country since the dramatic events of early December.**

    >**In the most recent survey of Syrian refugees across the region, 27 per cent of respondents told UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency, that they intend to return home within the next 12 months – a sharp increase from only 1.7 per cent of respondents who said the same thing before the fall of the regime.**
