On October 22, 2024, a fire, caused by an electrical malfunction, broke out in a tent in al-Kurdi Camp for internally displaced persons (IDPs) in Armanaz town in western rural Idlib governorate. While no casualties were recorded, the tent was completely destroyed in the blaze, while its 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.
