Freezing rain turning into heavy ice smashed electricity poles in Homs and surrounding area today causing massive power outages in an area already suffering from frequent electricity cuts due to civil war.

Damage to infrastructure and vegetation is significant and it may take months until power is restored if any such attempts are made at all.

Photos below taken yesterday and earlier today.
