An weapons depot exploded on Monday evening near a former security branch in the city of Deir ez-Zor, eastern Syria.

A local source told North Press that the blast occurred in the al-Vilat neighborhood, near the former General Intelligence Directorate building, though the cause remains unknown.

Security forces, firefighting teams, special forces, and the Syrian Civil Defense rushed to the scene to contain the situation and ensure residents’ safety, the source added.
