DAMASCUS, Syria, Feb 5 (NNN-SANA) – Syrian authorities will evacuate 4,000 families from damaged buildings in Aleppo city, in northern Syria, following the death of 11 civilians, when their building collapsed recently, a pro-government newspaper reported.
The authorities will secure alternative housing to the 4,000 families, which are living in around 10,000 damaged buildings in Aleppo, said al-Watan.
It added, measure will help the people until their homes are fixed or rebuilt.
On Saturday, a total of 11 people died, when their building collapsed, in the eastern part of Aleppo city.
The victims lost their lives when their 5-storey building collapsed, as it’s located in the Salahuddin neighbourhood, which was under rebel control before 2016.
The area is largely damaged, as it was a battlefield between the rebels and the Syrian government forces.
Since its liberation in late 2016, many civilians returned to their shattered homes, even if their buildings were largely damaged, due to the high expense of rentals in other neighbourhoods in Aleppo.– NNN-SANA
