According to a military source close to the scene, over 20 people were hospitalized after the projectiles struck the civilian neighborhoods.

The source said the Suqaylabiyeh Hospital reported that most of the victims were suffering from asphyxiation after one of the jihadist projectiles landed in a civilian area.
