On October 12th, an explosion took place in the city of al-Bab in the Syria’s Aleppo governorate.
An improvised explosive device planted in a car exploded next to the Ihsan mosque in the city of al-Bab.

A day before, another explosion rocked the city of Afrin in the Syria’s Aleppo governorate. Casualties were reported by local sources. No group has officially claimed responsibility for the attack.
It seems like everybody in Syria drives a 2005 Hyundai Santa Fe. Is that the only car they sell there?
