The Syria Response Coordinators Team confirmed that dozens of tents within the camps for the displaced in northwestern Syria have suffered significant material damage as a result of an air storm and high-speed winds in various areas of Idlib province, its countryside, and the northern countryside of Aleppo.
The team said that "to date, more than 28 camps have been documented damaged in various regions, which led to the uprooting and destruction of 58 tents, with the continuation of documentation operations by the field teams of the Syria Response Coordinators."
The relief group confirmed, according to a statement published on Monday, that the newly established camps accounted for the largest proportion of the damages, equivalent to 70% of the recorded damage rates, and the damages were distributed among the regions by 13 camps in the Idlib region and 15 camps in the Aleppo countryside.
The response team added, "So far, the field teams have received many reports of damage in other camps, and the teams are seeking to reach those camps and count the damage caused by the storm, with increasing fears that the storm will continue and that it will be associated with rainfall that will increase the percentage of damage in the area." .”
"Blaming only one party has become illogical, as all parties bear their full responsibility for supporting the displaced, especially with the increase in the number of displaced people in the region after the earthquake that the region was exposed to last month," the statement says.
The response team warned civilians in all regions not to approach the crumbling buildings or buildings that are about to fall in the area for fear of collapsing and causing more civilian casualties.
It also asked all humanitarian organizations and bodies to work urgently to help the displaced in the camps and work to end the continuing suffering of civilians as a result of the region's exposure since the beginning of this year to a wave of natural disasters.
