On January 21, 2024, a fire, caused by a heater, broke out in a tent sheltering internally displaced persons (IDPs) in al-Meydan Camp in Mash-had Rouhin area in northern rural Idlib governorate. While no casualties were recorded, the tent was partially destroyed in the blaze. 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.
