An Arabic sign that reads: "3 Syrian style bread 5 lira" is seen at a market in Istanbul, Turkey February 17, 2016. Turkey's 2.6 million Syrian refugees may be straining the housing and jobs systems, but they're also fuelling economic growth. The world's largest refugee population has had a positive impact on Turkish output, economists and government officials say. It may be partly responsible for an unexpected rise in third-quarter growth and stronger forecasts for 2016 output. Picture taken February 17, 2016. REUTERS/Murad Sezer - GF10000315754
