To date, 70,630 people, including 17,657 women of reproductive age, remain displaced from North-East Syria, to Al-Hassakeh, Ar-Raqqa and Aleppo governorates. Displaced people have, in the majority, found shelter in local communities but also in informal settlements and collective shelters. The local community reported that new IDP families from Idleb have been displaced to Ar-Raqqa city, through Dadat crossing point, and have been accommodated in public buildings or hosted by the local community.
