On July 23, 2023, a malfunction in a battery-operated lighting source caused a fire in Salah al-Din Camp for internally displaced persons (IDPs) near Kafr Daryan town in northern rural Idlib governorate. While no casualties were recorded, one tent and its contents were completely destroyed in the blaze. The area is under the joint control of armed opposition factions and Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham (HTS).
The Syrian Network for Human Rights (SNHR) calls on international relief organizations to meet the urgent basic needs of IDPs’ camps, and to supply the camps’ administration with additional tents for emergencies.
