أهلاً وسهلاً باللاجئين

Or, to sound more friendly you can add 'brothers'. It's commonly used even when addressing strangers:

أهلاً وسهلاً بالإخوة اللاجئين

Thanks Sep 1, 2015

Thank you. If we choose to use the second version, is that ok when addressing men, women and children (not just 'brothers' i.e. men)? Just to be sure!

Yes Sep 1, 2015

Yes, in this context 'brothers' is perfectly fine to address all of these together.
