DAMASCUS: In the aftermath of the devastating earthquake that struck northwest Syria in February 2023, the region faced immense challenges as thousands lost their lives and 170,000 people were once again displaced.
A year later, the situation remains dire, with emergency aid dwindling and many still struggling to find adequate shelter. Most of the affected population had already been displaced prior to the earthquake, compounding the challenges they faced. With emergency aid running dry, some individuals are forced to seek refuge in condemned buildings, highlighting the ongoing struggle for survival and the need for sustained support and assistance in the region’s recovery efforts.
