On June 28, 2023, an electrical malfunction caused a fire in a number of tents for earthquake victims in Jendeires town in the suburbs of Afrin in northwestern Aleppo governorate. While no civilian injuries were recorded, the blaze completely burned four tents and their contents. 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 urgent basic needs of IDPs’ camps, and to supply the camps’ administration with additional tents for emergencies.
