ACU’s enumerators have assessed 163 camps within ten camp clusters in Northern Syria located in three governorates Aleppo, Idleb and Lattakia during October 2015. The Northern Hama countryside has witnessed massive displacement wave since the beginning of the month towards Rural Idleb camps, due to the deterioration of security situation and the intensification of bombing there.

More than 1,624 new displaced families have reached the camps, part of those families have settled down in the assessed camps of Atma and Al Karama clusters and the other part stayed within nine newly established camps most of them in Al Karama cluster. Most of new families had to build rooms roofed with an insulator due to lack of new tents distributed by humanitarian organizations for the newly displaced families. The new camps were initially named as following: Al Haneen ila Al Watan, Al Iman Billah, Al Nahda Al Islamiyah and Mulhak Yasmeen Al Sham within Al Karama cluster.

Al Hadeel camp within Atma cluster and Shuhadaa Kafrnbuda within Qah cluster. Al Huriya wa Al Adala, Al Ibaa and Sabiroon camps within Salqin cluster. There are other newly established camps but with no names yet. The humanitarian organizations tried to cover the newly displaced families’ needs by increasing the amount of provided humanitarian aid including the numbers of food baskets, hygiene and emergency kits. In spite of this, the humanitarian aid is still insufficient especially number of tents and insulators needed to contain this wave of displacement.
