Two Syrians killed in militant mortar attacks
At least two people have been killed and over a dozen others injured in mortar attacks by foreign-backed Takfiri militants in and around the Syrian capital, Damascus.
A civilian was killed and nine others sustained injuries on Saturday after 9 shells fired by the militants hit several residential neighborhoods in Damascus, Syria’s official news agency, SANA, quoted an unnamed source with the Damascus Police Command as saying.
The source added that at least three cars were set afire and material damage was caused to a number of houses and shops in the attack.
The Takfiri terrorists positioned in the Eastern Ghouta region of the Syrian province of Rif Dimashq fired the mortar shells.
In a separate development, at least a woman was killed and nine others were injured after rockets fired by militants landed in the residential areas of al-Kashkoul and al-Kabbas near Damascus.
Cities and towns across Syria have been hit by bomb attacks, mortar and rocket fire by Takfiri terrorists since conflict broke out in the Arab country more than four years ago. More than 230,000 people have since been killed in Syria.
Backed by Western powers and their regional allies, including Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Turkey, the militants have forced over 3.8 million Syrians to take refuge in neighboring countries, namely Jordan and Lebanon.
