NORTHERN GHOR — The Northern Ghor District on Sunday started logistic procedures to move Syrian refugees residing in illegal makeshift camps in Sharhabil Bin Hassneh Municipality to the Zaatari Refugee Camp.

Northern Ghor District Governor Adnan Otoum attributed the move to safety concerns, as the camps lack the minimum health and safety requirements for the 800 refugees.
