Why it Matters:
Since the fall of Assad in Syria by the armed group Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) and other terrorist groups, and the deterioration of the security situation in the country, Syria has repeatedly witnessed unrest and terrorist acts. Insecurity in Syria could have spillover effects and lead to the growth of terrorism in the region and neighboring Islamic countries.
Key Points:
- 14 have been killed in the terror attack and there are concerns the death toll may rise.
- The wounded were taken to the surrounding hospitals.
- No group immediately claimed responsibility for the attack.
