Residents in the capital of Argentina, Buenos Aires, were able to see the horrors of the Syrian civil war first hand on Sep. 19. The installation intends to raise people's awareness of the plight of millions of people affected by war. Residents in Argentine capital, Buenos Aires on Monday Sept. 19 were able to see the horrors of the Syrian civil war first hand through an Amnesty International installation set up in a subway station. A banner outside the installation along the corridors of the Carlos Pellegrini subway station reads like this: "To understand what is happening in Syria, nothing better than being there for a minute." Residents are invited into a simulated Syrian living room. A motion sensor then triggers an explosion using television screens, set up behind a window frame, giving the impression you are experiencing the blast. ==LEA TANDETER, Director, Amnesty International Argentina == We have simulated a living room, which could be any house in Syria and through the windows, we simulated using television screens, the reality seen from a house in Syria. You can see bombings, destruction and the consequences of these years of sustained civil war afflicting the country. There are currently over 60 million people worldwide who have been displaced from their homes. A 36-year-old businessman, Julio Cesar Montenegro, said he couldn't imagine living in Syria at a time like this. ==JULIO CESAR MONTENEGRO, Businessman== You don't even think about it. You see it only on the news. To see it from an angle as though you were in the place is something that gets to you. It gets to you because, if you have children, just imagine to be in a place like that. It makes you feel bad. As there has been a constant flow of requests for refuge in Argentina, many Argentine families are volunteering to take Syrian refugees into their homes, expressing humanity just by giving these refugees the chance to find new life there.
