On July 10, 2024, a fire, caused by an electrical malfunction, broke out in a temporary housing unit in al-Ibaa Camp for internally displaced persons (IDPs) near Qah village in northern rural Idlib governorate. While no casualties were injured, the unit’s ceiling was burned, while the unit’s contents were heavily 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 IDP camps’ urgent basic needs, and to supply the camps’ administration with additional tents for emergencies.
