On March 31, 2024, a fire, caused by an electrical malfunction, broke out in al-Jesr Camp housing internally displaced persons (IDPs) in Sejjo village in northern rural Aleppo governorate. While no casualties were recorded, the blaze completely destroyed four tents and severely damaged their contents. 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 IDP camps’ urgent basic needs, and to supply the camps’ administration with additional tents for emergencies.
