Two Syrian children, a sister and a brother aged 7 and 4, died following burns sustained in a fire that broke out in an earthquake camp in north-western Turkey and in which their other 4 brothers and their mother were injured.
This was reported by the National Observatory for Human Rights in Syria, according to which the two children died in the last few hours in a hospital on the border between Turkey and Syria, in the area devastated by the earthquake of 6 February.
The family of the two children was originally from Idlib and had been displaced twice: first by the war, then by the earthquake.
