On December 17, 2024, a fire, caused by the explosion of a stove, broke out in a tent in a camp housing internally displaced persons (IDPs) near Kabrja village to the south of Manbij city in eastern Aleppo governorate. The fire killed one boy, identified as two-year-old Abbouda al-Hassan from Deir Hafer district in eastern rural Aleppo governorate, while the tent and its contents were heavily damaged in the blaze. The area is under the control of Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF).
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.
