Syrian refugees streaming over border into northern Iraq

Syrian refugees continue to stream over the border into northern Iraq, aid agencies said on Tuesday. The Kurdistan regional government has put in place a daily quota of 3,000. About 30,000 refugees, believed to be mainly Syrian Kurds, have poured into Iraq since Thursday. Up to 3,000 are lined up to cross on Tuesday, Reuters said, citing the United Nations agency UNHCR.
