Hind Al Soulia - Riyadh - ALEPPO — Powerful explosions at a weapons depot in northern Syria early on Monday injured at least four people, with officials urging the public to stay away from the site.
The cause of the explosions was not immediately known.
The explosions occurred at a Syrian army site in the vicinity of the town of al-Eis, south of the city of Aleppo, the state-run SANA news agency reported.
Faisal Mohammad Ali, the head of civil defence operations in Aleppo, told SANA that rescuers have evacuated four injured people from the site. He said earlier that the explosions had prevented emergency services from reaching the site swiftly.
One civilian was injured by shrapnel as a result of the explosion at "an ammunition depot", SANA reported later, quoting the Ministry of Emergency and Disaster Management.
Two civilians suffered temporary "breathing difficulties", while another civilian was injured in a traffic accident while attempting to flee the blast area, it added.
Syria's civil defence teams transported the injured and evacuated three families from the blast site and remain on "high alert... due to the continued explosions".
According to an Al Jazeera reporter in Aleppo, said a series of blasts has followed the initial explosion.
“The explosions are audible from a few kilometres away from the site. We have now seen a series of ambulances and fire trucks enter towards the position,” he said.
Aleppo Governor Azzam al-Gharib urged residents not to leave their homes for the time being, adding that “hospitals, ambulance and emergency teams are on full alert”.
Roads leading to the site of the explosions were closed “to ensure the safety of civilians”, Aleppo’s Internal Security Command said.
A resident of Aleppo’s Hamdaniyeh neighbourhood told the AFP news agency that they heard a “huge explosion” and when they went up to the roof could see “large flames in the distance”.
Several such blasts have previously occurred in Syria, which is emerging from more than a decade of civil war following the toppling of longtime ruler Bashar al-Assad in late 2024.
An explosion of unknown origin killed 11 people at a military site in the eastern province of Deir Az Zor on Friday.
Earlier this month, an explosion at a weapons depot belonging to the Ministry of Defence killed 14 people and injured 11 in Syria’s northwest Idlib province.
Five people were killed just over a week earlier in the same area when a vehicle carrying munitions exploded.
