Disaster Overview : In February 2023, Northern Syria experienced catastrophic flooding due to the overflow of the Asi/Orontes river and heavy rainstorms. The opening of the al-Rastan Dam and the collapse of a concrete dam between Antakya and Reyhanli in Türkiye led to severe flooding in Idlib province. The aftermath of these events forced around 7,000 people to evacuate, and the destruction continued with heavy rainstorms in March, affecting more than 80,000 people across multiple displacement sites.
