An unknown explosion occurred near the comprehensive clinics building in Al Hamidiya, in the city of Deir Ezzor, causing casualties and injuries, as well as causing destruction and material damage to property.

A Syrian military source confirmed to Al Mayadeen that the explosion came from an unidentified object left behind by ISIS in an empty building near the Jubailah and Al Hamidiya neighborhoods in the city of Deir Ezzor, killing three people and injuring seven others. 

Medical sources confirmed the arrival of 18 dead and wounded to nearby hospitals, with expectations that the number of victims will rise due to the severe injuries.

Eight Syrians were killed and more than 40 were injured earlier this month, as a result of a mine explosion that was left behind by ISIS terrorists in the countryside of Deir Ezzor. 

A day earlier, ten civilians were killed and 12 others were injured when two mines that were left behind exploded in the vicinity of the Salamiyah area in the eastern countryside of Hama.

Fifty-three Syrian civilians who were collecting truffles were killed on February 17 after they were attacked by the terrorist organization ISIS, southeast of the city of Al Sukhna in the eastern countryside of Homs.
