Two sets of explosions rock Syria, amid claims of Israeli involvement
There were explosions at a military warehouse in Homs and airstrikes in the Syrian Golan Heights today.
Two sets of explosions occurred in Syria today and there are conflicting reports on Israel’s possible involvement.
One set of explosions took place at a military warehouse in the central Syrian city of Homs. Ten civilians were injured and the Israeli military declined to comment on the incident, The Associated Press reported.
The Syrian state news agency SANA reported that the explosion on the city's outskirts was caused by “human error” and took place at an ammunition depot. The explosion occurred during the movement of ammunition, a military source told SANA. Some people were injured due to shrapnel from the explosion and the incident is under investigation by local authorities, the outlet reported.
However, the pro-opposition Syrian Observatory for Human Rights reported that Israeli shelling of ammunition and missile storage facilities in Homs caused the explosion, citing unidentified sources.
