On December 8, 2023, a fire, caused by an oven leak, broke out in a tent housing internally displaced persons (IDPs) in the al-Karam Camp near Jendeires town in northwestern rural Aleppo governorate. Although no casualties were recorded, the tent and its contents were completely destroyed in the blaze. The area is under the control of the Syrian National Army (SNA).
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.
