On March 2, a fire, caused by an electrical fault, broke out in a tent in an irregular camp for internally displaced persons (IDPs) to the north of Ma’aret Misreen town in northern rural Idlib governorate. While no casualties were recorded, the tent and its contents were completely 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.
