A boy, identified as 13-year-old Ahmad Mohammad Mkhammas from al-Lajat area in eastern rural Daraa governorate, was killed on August 15, 2023, by the explosion of a war remnant whose source we have
not yet been able to identify in al-Fqea in northern Daraa governorate.
The area is under the control of Syrian regime forces. The Syrian Network for Human Rights (SNHR) notes that war remnants continue to pose a serious threat to civilians’ lives. We have released
numerous reports on cluster munitions and war remnants, calling for securing equipment to help local residents safely dispose of the various explosive remnants.
