The Ministry of Emergency and Disaster Management issued a report regarding its response to a tragic traffic accident that occurred on the morning of July 25, 2026, on the Damascus-Deir Ezzor highway near the city of Sukhna. Two buses collided — one of which was operated by the Ministry of Interior. Upon receiving the report at 11:52 AM, seven teams from the Syrian Civil Defence were dispatched to carry out rescue, first aid, and evacuation operations, in coordination with the Ministries of Health, Defense, and Interior. The incident resulted in the death of 35 people and injuries to 30 others. The injured were transported to hospitals in Homs and Deir Ezzor, where the Minister of Health and health directors oversaw the provision of care. The military used three helicopters to airlift the wounded. Government efforts to enhance hospital readiness continued, alongside condolences offered by officials. Investigations are ongoing to determine the causes of the accident and to implement necessary interventions to ensure safety and restore normal traffic flow.
