The explosion took place in the southern Damascus suburb of Jaramana, near a factory where batteries are produced, state TV said.
Two people were killed and two were wounded, the channel said, without giving further details.
The Interior Ministry said the dead included a child, adding that one person was wounded and security forces have cordoned off the area to start an investigation.
Several explosions have taken place in Damascus and its suburbs in recent months, as the war-torn country’s security remains fragile.
Militants stormed the capital and removed then-president Bashar Assad from power in December 2024.
Jaramana is home to a large community of the Druze religious minority.
The suburb has faced tensions between some members of the community and Sunni Muslim Syrians supportive of the government.
