On July 16, 2024, a fire, caused by an electrical malfunction, broke out in Kefaf Camp for internally displaced persons (IDPs) in Jendeires town, administratively a part of Afrin city, in northwestern Aleppo governorate. While no casualties were recorded, three tents were completely destroyed in the blaze, while their contents were heavily damaged. 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.
