Levant24 has highlighted that the Aleppo explosion is the fourth this month Syrian authorities are investigating an explosion near Aleppo that occurred overnight on Sunday. It is the latest mysterious explosion in Syria , one of several that apparently occurred at an arms depot in the last two weeks. Most commentators agree that while one or two accidental explosions are possible, the recent ones appear to fit a pattern. Syrian state media noted that “an explosion struck a Syrian Arab Army weapons depot near al-Eis in southern Aleppo countryside early Monday, with the Defense Ministry opening an investigation into the cause, as authorities secured the site and emergency teams responded in surrounding areas.”
