Camps for internally displaced persons are set up near the northern Syrian town of Sarmada, near the Turkish border, following the recent military campaign by the Syrian government forces to retake the Idlib and Hamah provinces. In recent weeks the Syrian government with its Russian ally have stepped up a military campaign against the rebel-held bastions in the Idlib and Hama provinces in north-western Syria. The campaign has sparked further internal displacement, especially recently from the Khan Sheikhoun and the nearby villages of Morek, and Latamneh, as the government recently seized them from the opposition. It is estimated that in recent days ten of thousands of people residing in north western Syria fled to the northern Syrian towns of Atmah, Bab al-Hawa, and Sarmad
