On September 21, 2023, a fire whose cause is so far unidentified broke out in al-Mahabba Camp 1 for internally displaced persons (IDPs) on the outskirts of Izaz city in northern rural Aleppo governorate. While no casualties were recorded, the blaze completely destroyed one tent and its 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.
