Multiple explosions were reported as strikes hit buildings and nearby infrastructure, triggering fires and sending residents fleeing for safety while emergency crews rushed to assist. Witnesses described hearing blasts “in quick succession” as smoke filled the streets and windows shattered across the area.

Authorities confirmed fatalities and many injuries, with hospitals struggling to treat victims suffering from burns, blast wounds, and trauma caused by collapsing structures. Medical teams continue working under pressure as more injured civilians arrive for urgent care.

Search-and-rescue operations remain underway in heavily damaged neighborhoods, though officials say the full scale of destruction is still unknown. Early information suggests that residential buildings and public facilities were among the hardest hit, leaving many areas unsafe and unstable.

Residents recalled scenes of fear and confusion as the attacks unfolded rapidly, leaving little time to react. Many said they heard incoming projectiles before “a series of blasts shook the area.” Some people took shelter underground, while others tried escaping through smoke-filled streets covered in debris as emergency responders searched for survivors in dangerous conditions.

Officials continue urging civilians to stay in protected shelters and avoid damaged sites because of risks including structural collapse and unexploded hazards. Humanitarian organizations are closely monitoring the crisis and preparing aid such as medical assistance, shelter, and emergency supplies for displaced families. Rescue efforts continue despite difficult conditions, and authorities warn that casualty numbers could rise as additional areas become accessible and more verified information is gathered.
