While playing with it | Young man killed by grenade explosion in Tartous countryside

Tartous province: A young man was killed by the explosion of a grenade, while he was playing with it in Al-Qalei’ah village in Tartous countryside within regime-held areas.

 

This comes in light of proliferation of arms among civilians across Syria.

 

On August 17, SOHR sources reported that a 17 year-old child died after playing with a hand grenade that exploded inside his parents’ house in Bait Al-Taweel Street in southern Akrama neighbourhood in Homs.
