Daraa, Dec. 22 (SANA). A young woman was killed on Monday after a hand grenade left over from the former regime exploded in the al-Lajat area of the northern Daraa countryside.
Director of Izra National Hospital Dr. Mahmoud al-Zaabi told SANA that the young woman was brought to the hospital in critical condition after sustaining severe injuries from the explosion, and died a short time later.
Similar incidents continue to occur in several areas of the Daraa countryside, which still suffer from the presence of unexploded war remnants inside homes and on agricultural land, posing a serious threat to civilians’ lives.
On Oct. 18, a grenade explosion inside a house in the town of Khirbet Ghazaleh in the Daraa countryside injured five children with varying degrees of severity.
Unexploded ordnance and war remnants remain a silent legacy of danger hidden among rubble and agricultural fields, representing a major security and humanitarian challenge that threatens the lives and safety of thousands of Syrian families returning to their cities and villages liberated from the former regime.
In a previous statement to SANA, Joseph McCartan, head of the United Nations Mine Action Service (UNMAS) program in Syria, said that 2024 recorded the highest rates of casualties caused by explosions of war remnants and unexploded ordnance. He noted that 500 victims, killed or injured, were documented across more than 800 contaminated sites in southern, eastern and northern regions, making mine-risk awareness and safety one of the most urgent priorities in the post-liberation phase.
