SOHR sources have reported the explosion of an unexploded bomb in the vicinity of the regime-controlled town of Suran in Hama countryside. The explosion injured a child who was taken to Hama national hospital.

 

Yesterday, SOHR activists documented the death of a young man, while he was herding sheep by the explosion of an old landmine in Shaninah village in the eastern countryside of Al-Raqqah.

 

Accordingly, SOHR has documented the death of 100 civilians, including four women and 41 children, due to explosions of old landmines, unexploded shells and bombs across Syria since early 2022. In addition, 115 civilians, including eight women and 67 children, sustained various injuries in the same period. Among the total death toll, a man and his son were killed in the collapse of a war-damaged building in Darya city in Rif Dimashq.
