Two children were injured in an explosion involving a landmine left over from the war in the town of al-Naima in the Daraa countryside. They were taken to Daraa National Hospital for treatment, according to the Daraa Health Directorate.

Earlier, the Daraa 24 news website documented the deaths of nine children and injuries to three others across the province in October. The incidents were caused by explosions involving remnants of war, Jordanian airstrikes, gunfire and weapons-related accidents. Children accounted for 37.5% of the 24 deaths documented during the month.
