The incident occurred near the al-Khili Mosque in Ain Zara. The injured workers were taken to the hospital for necessary medical treatment.

Local authorities are currently securing the area and investigating the incident to prevent similar future occurrences.

The planned elections for December 2021 were delayed due to disagreements over election laws and the eligibility of certain candidates. This delay has raised concerns about the feasibility of a peaceful political transition.

Despite the ceasefire, security remains a significant concern with sporadic fighting and the presence of mercenaries and imported muscle. The unification of the military and the removal of foreign forces are crucial challenges.
