Turkey will set up 10,000 tents for Aleppo refugees at camps in the Syrian city of Idlib, state-run Anadolu Agency reported on Friday.
The president of the Turkish Red Crescent Kerem Kinik said that Turkey had begun building the tent city and the first phase of the camp will be completed within three to four days.
The camp near Hatay province of Turkish border would host rest areas, school, health center, mobile toilets and bath facilities.
A total of six to seven kilometers heavy-construction equipment from Hatay is being used during building the camp.
Turkey is preparing to increase the capacity of the refugee camps to 50,000 people.
The evacuation of rebels and their families started on Thursday, and over 8,000 have already left toward the western countryside of Aleppo.
The situation in Aleppo worsened rapidly after a truce accord collapsed in September, with months of heavy fighting driving the city to the brink of a humanitarian crisis.
