To facing all the difficulties of living in camps, we continue supporting

The inability to return home forced IDPs to live poor conditions, like the tough weather during summer or winter. That leads  to direct health awareness and relief services to them. However, our health education teams are  distributing mosquito nets in Washokani camp, in order to  protect the people  from mosquitos especially in Summer,  as well as raising awareness about this issue. That was  in cooperation with  Rojava and Acted NGOs

 

    

   

The shelling continues on the displaced in Al-Shahaba

The Turkish Army, backed by Islamic factions, continues to bomb the areas of Shahba, to which the people of Afrin have fled, and today three people have been killed by this attack (two children from the town of Tal Rifaat, ages 8 and 12 years , and a displaced woman from Afrin)
More than six people, all civilians from the same families, were wounded, including children and women.
The Turkish attacks on a camp area inhabited by IDPs and civilians are a blatant violation of any humanity or ethic law.
