The #Wadi_Nahla area, #Meniyah district in the #North, witnessed a state of panic and fear among residents at midnight, after a strong explosion was heard and clouds of fire and smoke rose later. It was reported that a drone targeted a Rapid car in the area, but it turned out that an electrical short circuit led to its ignition and caused the explosion of a gas bottle that was inside it. The fire was extinguished by the firefighters of the #Badawi camp, and the damage was limited to material damage.
