Summary On March 14, 2025, a landmine explosion in Adman village, Deir ez-Zor region, Syria, killed one person. The mine had been planted during previous fighting. Eastern Syria's Deir ez-Zor is an oil-producing region where ongoing safety risks from remaining landmines and explosives are creating moderate supply-chain risks.

Supply-chain impact

• Deir ez-Zor region is a major Syrian oil production area where landmine risks may impose safety constraints on petroleum facility operations and maintenance work
• Concerns over increased transportation costs and delivery delays due to explosive hazards affecting road traffic and logistics movement within the region
• Potential reduction in agricultural production activities due to remaining landmines in farming areas, with indirect impact particularly on grain production including wheat and barley
• Increased project costs and schedule delays for infrastructure recovery and construction activities due to required explosive ordnance disposal work

Watch points

• Track frequency of additional explosive incidents in Deir ez-Zor region and safety incident trends near petroleum facilities
• Monitor progress of demining operations in eastern Syria and international organizations' safety support activities
