Mohammedamin was standing approximately 50 to 100 meters from the building when the blast occurred, and the dramatic moment was captured on live broadcast. #BREAKING: Massive explosion rocks the Syrian capital Damascus during a live report by Rudaw correspondent Solin Mohammedamin. — Rudaw English (@RudawEnglish) July 16, 2025 Shortly after the explosion, Israel confirmed it had targeted Syrian military positions in Damascus. According to AFP, the Israeli military said the strike was carried out after issuing a warning to the Syrian government - led by Islamist factions - 'to leave the Druze minority alone' in the Suwayda province. Clashes between Bedouin tribes and Druze fighters in the predominantly Druze province have escalated sharply in the past couple of days, resulting in nearly 250 deaths, according to the UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR). Earlier on Wednesday, the Israeli military reported an initial strike on the entrance of a Syrian military headquarters in Damascus. In a statement on X, the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) said they 'struck the entrance of the Syrian regime's military headquarters in the area of Damascus in Syria.' In separate remarks, Avichay Adraee, the IDF's Arabic spokesperson, clarified that the targeted facility was the General Staff compound. The IDF is 'monitoring developments and actions against Druze citizens in Syria,' Adraee said, adding, 'Based on directives from the [Israeli] political leadership, the IDF is attacking in that area and remains on high alert for various scenarios.'

Suwayda death toll reaches 248 as clashes rage
Shafaq News – Suwayda Heavy shelling and street battles have plunged the southern Syrian city of Suwayda into a deepening humanitarian emergency, with at least 248 people killed since fighting erupted on July 13, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) reported on Wednesday. The violence—pitting Druze factions against Bedouin gunmen and Syrian government forces—has spiraled despite a declared truce, which quickly collapsed as fighting resumed across several districts. According to SOHR, regime troops bombarded Suwayda and neighboring Sahwat al-Balat overnight with artillery, mortars, and drones, hitting civilian areas and knocking out electricity and internet services. Key infrastructure remains crippled, exacerbating already dire conditions. #المرصد_السوري لحقوق الإنسان يُناشد بفتح معابر إنسانية عاجلة تتيح للمدنيين مغادرة مناطق القصف في ظل التعتيم الإعلامي المتواصل وانقطاع شبكتي الكهرباء والإنترنت عن مختلف مناطق المحافظة — المرصد السوري لحقوق الإنسان (@syriahr) July 16, 2025 Battles raged near Suwayda National Hospital, where medical teams have been working for over 72 hours without power or proper supplies, while snipers positioned along the Citadel–Tishreen Square corridor have cut off access to the facility, the watchdog cautioned. The Observatory documented 71 civilian deaths—including four children and two women—alongside 156 government-aligned fighters, including 18 Bedouin combatants, with an additional 21 people reportedly executed by units linked to Syria's Defense and Interior Ministries. Tishreen Square remains a focal point, with ongoing sniper fire and gun battles, SOHR reported, pointing to government trucks leaving the area loaded with personal belongings. The escalation follows recent Israeli airstrikes on Suwayda and its outskirts. Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz warned Damascus, demanding regime forces withdraw from Druze-majority areas. #المرصد_السوري بعد ساعات من التحليق في الجنوب السوري.. الطيران #الإسرائيلي يـ ـسـ ـتـ ـهـ ـدف آلية عسكرية بـ #السويداء — المرصد السوري لحقوق الإنسان (@syriahr) July 16, 2025 'Israel will not abandon the Druze community and will enforce our demilitarization policy,' he declared, adding that Tel Aviv would continue targeting regime positions and would escalate operations if Damascus fails to comply.
