An explosion from remnants of war in Syria’s northwestern Idlib province injured three civilians on Tuesday, one of them critically, Syrian state television reported. The injured were transported by civil defense teams to the National Hospital in Hama for treatment, according to a post by the state-run Al-Ekhbariya on social media platform X, citing Idlib’s Directorate of Emergency and Disaster Management. The blast highlights the ongoing danger posed by unexploded ordnance and abandoned munitions across Syria, even after the formal end of the civil war. The conflict concluded on December 8, 2024, with the fall of the Bashar al-Assad regime, closing a chapter of violence that lasted more than a decade.
