Due to a power interruption, a fire broke out at the Babus Salam refugee camp on Syria’s Turkish border. The flames quickly spread and caused panic. When the campsite was evacuated, the fire was put out before it spread throughout the camp.
Reportedly, 9 tents became unusable in the incident and there were no casualties or injuries.
German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul said Germany sees a negotiated two-state solution as the only path forward and emphasized, “For Germany, recognition of the State of Palestine is still at the very end of the process. However, such a process must begin immediately.” Ahead of his visit to Israel and Palestine, Wadephul urged Israel to ensure the safe distribution of humanitarian aid in Gaza and warned against unilateral annexation steps in the West Bank.
