<p>More than 50 million people had been forced from their homes worldwide at the end of last year, the United Nations refugee agency has said.<br />
The total number of displaced is the highest since the Second World War.</p>
<p>The daunting figure is also a stark reflection of the ongoing conflicts and persecutions from Syria to South Sudan. It includes refugees and asylum-seekers who fled abroad as well as people displaced within their own countries.<br />
The UNHCR’s annual Global Trends Report, published in Beirut today, says 51.2 million people had been forcibly displaced by the end of 2013 – six million more than at the end of the previous year.</p>
<p>The data is compiled from government, non-government partner organisations and UNHCR’s own records.<br />
Syria’s civil war alone has forced nine million people to flee their homes.</p>
