The ministry said in a statement that it was deeply saddened by the loss of life caused by the blast in the Sarmada district.
“We are deeply saddened by the loss of lives in an explosion which occurred today (9 September) at an ammunition depot in Sarmada, Idlib,” it said.
“We wish Allah’s mercy upon those who lost their lives in this tragic accident and extend our condolences to their families and to the people of Syria.”
