On February 23, 2025, a fire, caused by a heater, broke out inside a tent in al-Asi Camp for internally displaced persons (IDPs), which is located near Kafrsafra village (administratively a part of Afrin city) in northwestern rural Aleppo governorate. While no casualties were recorded, the tent was completely destroyed in the fire and its contents were heavily damaged. The area is under the control of the current transitional authorities in Syria.
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.
