Dozens injured in Syria car bomb blast
“Syrian Observatory for Human Rights group say Saturday’s bombing injured or killed dozens in Syrian town of Douma.”
Dozens of people have been wounded when a car bomb exploded in the Syrian town of Douma, northeast of the capital Damascus, local activists and a monitoring group said.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights monitoring group reported the bombing on Saturday, saying dozens of people were killed or wounded.
There was no immediate report on Syrian state media of the blast.
Photographs and footage uploaded to the Internet showed the flaming wreckage of an overturned vehicle in front of the blackened pillars of a nearby building, which activists said was located in a popular Douma market.
Since March 2011, the conflict in Syria has killed more than 150,000 people and forced nearly half the country’s population to flee their homes.
The number of refugees are also expected to hit 4.1 million at the end of 2014.
