Answer 1

The most accurate response is:

**They are the nearest countries to Syria.**

Many refugees have migrated to Turkey, Iraq, Lebanon, and Jordan primarily due to their geographical proximity to Syria, especially during the Syrian civil war, which began in 2011. This made these countries more accessible for those fleeing the conflict and seeking safety.
