Three people were injured in explosion in Syria’s Raqqa
RAQQA, Syria (North Press) – On Sunday, three people, including a child, were injured when an IED exploded at the entrance to a residential building in the city of Raqqa, northern Syria.
The Internal Security Forces (Asayish) in the city said, in a statement, that the IED exploded at the entrance to a residential building in the al-Nahda neighborhood behind al-Basrawi Mosque, which wounded three people, including a 13-year-old child.
The statement added that mines and explosives experts went to the site of the explosion to make sure that there are no other explosive objects, while the injured were transferred to Raqqa National Hospital.
The eastern countryside of Raqqa has recently witnessed an activity of ISIS sleeper cells.
However, today’s statement did not accuse any party of being behind the bombing, contenting itself with the determination of the Asayish to continue the fight against terrorism.
On June 27, ISIS claimed an assassination attempt on the head of the Farmers Union in Raqqa.
On May 23, ISIS claimed the targeting of the lawyer Khaled al-Mizan in the town of al-Karamah in the eastern countryside of Raqqa.
