Five people injured by car bomb in Idlib’s Tamana’a

At least 5 people were severely injured by a car bomb attack in the town of Tamana’a in Idlib southern countryside Wednesday (July 25), Orient News correspondent said.

"A suicide attacker blew his Huyndai pick up car at the gate of the local council’s headquarters in the town of Tamana’a at 5 o’clock am, injuring five of the members there," Orient News’ Mohammad al-Faisal said. 

Significant damage was caused in the targeted building and the neighbouring buildings, according to photos posted on social media.  

No group has claimed responsibility for the attack, but it came only day after the Hay’et Tahrir al-Sham stormed an ISIS-linked building in Idlib’s Jisr al-Sheghor, killing a Chechen leader, cutting his neck in an ISIS-slaughter execution.   

Idlib is the biggest part of Syria held by opposition fighters, with a population swollen by Syrians who were displaced by the Syrian regime and its allies’ advances in other parts of the country.
