ERBIL, Kurdistan (North Press) \u2013 <\/strong>Shariya Camp, the first camp that IDPs of Sinjar in Duhok governorate in the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) reside in, has received approval to transfer tents to cement-block houses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The approval came after a fire that broke out<\/a> on June 4th in the camp, burning more than 300 tents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“180 houses are almost ready to be delivered to those affected by the burning,” Deputy Director of Barzani Charity Foundation Muhammad Hawar told North Press.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hawar stressed the vigorous efforts to issue special laws regarding all camps “due to the rapid outbreak of fire in the tents, we are trying to issue a decision to allow the IDPs to replace their tents with houses made of cement blocks or soil. “<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are 15 camps for Sinjari IDPs in Duhok governorate, and Shariya camp alone is home to more than 20,000 IDPs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
