Executive Summary
The ongoing conflict and military escalation in Aleppo Governorate has triggered a surge in displacement, forcing thousands of families to flee their homes. Displaced individuals, primarily from Tel Rifaat and Afrin, have sought refuge in Northeast Syria, where they face critical challenges in securing adequate shelter, essential services, and protection. Overcrowded schools and mosques have been repurposed to serve as temporary shelters but lack sufficient infrastructure and resources to accommodate the displaced population. The assessment identified healthcare, protection, and food security as the most urgent needs, alongside critical gaps in shelter, water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) services. Vulnerable groups, including women, children, elderly individuals, and persons with disabilities, face heightened risks due to inadequate protection measures and limited access to tailored services. Additionally, safety concerns such as gender-based violence (GBV) and child labor were highlighted, further emphasizing the need for robust interventions. Immediate recommendations include the establishment of mobile clinics, the provision of winterization materials such as blankets and heating equipment, and the improvement of WASH facilities in shelters. Long-term solutions emphasize the need for sustainable livelihood opportunities, skill-building programs, and the rehabilitation of education services for displaced children. Strengthening coordination among humanitarian actors and advocating for increased funding and resources are essential to addressing the evolving needs of the displaced population effectively. This report shows the urgency of coordinated and comprehensive responses to mitigate the suffering of displaced families and promote their resilience and dignity in the face of protracted displacement.
