Suicide blast rocks Syrian city
A suicide car bomb blast shook Syria’s eastern city of Deir el-Zour today, targeting a military compound in the latest of a wave of blasts to hit the country in recent months, the country’s state media reported.
State TV said the blast caused casualties, and showed footage of damaged buildings, smouldering cars, and trucks turned upside down by the blast. Debris filled a street that was stained with blood. The station said UN observers based in the city visited the site of the blast.
