A devastating car bomb exploded in Manbij, Syria, killing a minimum of 20 people, primarily women, with numerous others injured. This explosion is part of a troubling series of attack patterns, recorded as the seventh incident within a month, escalating fears among civilians still recovering from the prolonged impacts of a civil war. The Syrian presidency has promised accountability for those responsible. Menaced by repeated violence, the city faces a deteriorating humanitarian crisis, complicating efforts in education and farming, while it grapples with the ongoing conflict between Turkish-backed forces and local factions.
The continued attacks on Syrian civilian areas and targeting civilians while they are trying to recover from the effects of the war of the defunct Assad regime that lasted for about 14 years threatens their lives, deepens their humanitarian tragedy, undermines educational and agricultural activities and livelihoods, and worsens the humanitarian situation in Syria.
This car bomb explosion was the seventh in Manbij in just over a month, highlighting a troubling trend of violence amidst an already fragile situation in the region.
