IDLIB, SYRIA - JULY 02: A Syrian kid suffering from leishmaniasis, a parasitic disease spread by the bite of phlebotomine sandflies, is seen in a refugee camp in Idlib, Syria on July 02, 2020. In the refugee camps in Idlib, danger of leishmaniasis disease arose due to inadequate living conditions and insufficient health services. In the camps where sheltered civilians escaping from the attacks of Assad regime and its supporters, infrastructure problems, especially exposed septic pits and damaged sewers, cause the spread of the disease.
