Explosive devices, landmines, rockets and other explosive objects weighing more than half a ton were detonated in a controlled manner by experts from the explosive ordnance disposal service and the security forces of North and East Syria (Asayîş) in Deir ez-Zor. They were devices left by the Islamic State.

The war paraphernalia, including large quantities of TNT, were blown up under high security in the desert of Deir ez-Zor, away from any residential development. According to Asayîş, a significant part of the destroyed objects had only recently been discovered in various regions in the greater Deir ez-Zor area after information was sent to the operations center. The agency receives more information about ISIS bomb devices or weapons storage facilities.
