The cities of Jablah (Latakkia) and Tartous witnessed a number of explosions, which according to regime sources killed 90 people.

The Jablah explosion took place in a bus garage in the ‘Amarah district, whilst official sources cites that three explosions took place in Tartous: at the Bus station, in a residential area, and in front of the bus station.

According to Reuters, ISIS claimed responsibility for the attack. However, news channels loyal to the regime claimed that Ahraar al-Shaam had claimed responsibility for one of the attacks, although no evidence was provided for this claim.

Regime sources also mentioned that the explosions rook place through suicide bombers, whilst other channels mentioned that the explosions came from cars loaded with explosives.

This is the first time in which these areas have witnessed similar explosions.
