On January 19, 2024, a fire, caused by a heater, broke out in a temporary residence sheltering internally displaced persons (IDPs) in al-Ard al-Tayyeba Camp in Salwa village in northern rural Idlib governorate. While no casualties were recorded, the blaze completely destroyed the residence’s contents. The area is under the 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.
