In this Sunday, March 8, 2015 photo, Syrian refugee Rifaa Ahmad, 50, cuddles her granddaughter at an informal tented settlement near the Syrian border, on the outskirts of Mafraq, Jordan. Some Syrian refugees say they pitched tents to be close to jobs on farms, especially during harvest season. Others say they can't afford rent or that they don't want to live in the authorized camps because of restrictions there. (AP Photo/Muhammed Muheisen), APTOPIX
