On May 7, 2024, a fire, caused by an electrical malfunction, broke out in Bani Khuza Camp for internally displaced persons (IDPs) near Kelli village in northern rural Idlib governorate. While no casualties were recorded, three camps were completely destroyed in the blaze, while their contents were heavily damaged. 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 IDP camps’ urgent basic needs, and to supply the camps’ administration with additional tents for emergencies.
