Several explosions have rocked the Sayeda Zeinab district in the southern part of Syria's capital Damascus, Syrian state television reported. Over 30 people are feared killed; suicide bombers are suspected to be behind at least two of the blasts.
Four blasts hit al-Tin Street near the al-Sadr hospital, with two explosions being car bombs and the others suicide bombers, the al-Ikhbariya channel said.
There are casualties among civilians in Sayeda Zeinab district, a police source, who talked to RIA-Novosti, said.
The death toll is currently being verified. Hezbollah's al-Mmanar TV puts the death toll at 22, while the Syrian state TV at 30. Dozens are feared injured.
Comment: It's sickening that even the scientific evidence that can mean the difference between freedom and a life behind bars -- or worse -- can't be relied upon. These police gangs are corrupt to their very cores.
