One village in Lebanon is hosting more Syrian refugees than the entire USA

"There is a small village in the mountains of Lebanon that is hosting more Syrian refugees than all 50 US states combined." “We have a history of welcoming refugees,” says Ali Tafesh, a local business owner. “In 2006 we did the same,” he adds, referring to the displacement of people caused by Israel’s invasion of southern Lebanon that year."
