Anderson Cooper traveled to Turkey to meet Syrian families living in refugee camps on the border of the two countries. Besides their homes and livelihoods, many of them have lost family members and friends to the violence inflicted upon civilians by Bashar al-Assad’s forces.

Anderson will tell their stories in a special program that includes Ivan Watson’s expert reporting, an interview with Sen. John McCain, and valuable insight from Fouad Ajami who is also in Turkey. Tune in to AC360° tonight at 8 and 10 p.m. ET.
