On October 27, 2024, a fire, of unidentified cause, broke out in a housing unit in Zaatari Refugee Camp near the Jordanian-Syrian borders in northern Jordan. A woman, identified as Kefah Kamal al-Khalayfa from al-Karak al-Sharqi village in eastern rural Daraa governorate, died in the fire, along with her three children: Sedra (girl), Isam (boy), and Qasem (boy) al-Zu’bi from Kherbt Ghazala town in eastern Daraa governorate.
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.
