The explosion—believed to have been caused by a car bomb—occurred near the central prison in Al-Mayadin, coinciding with a security campaign launched by Damascus-affiliated groups.

Following the explosion, a security cordon was imposed around the site, and civilians were prevented from approaching, while the dead and injured were transported to hospitals for treatment.

According to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, Damascus-affiliated public security forces closed all entrances and exits to the city and began conducting thorough searches.

This bombing comes amid increasing security tensions in Al-Mayadin, with a noticeable rise in the activity of armed groups.
