"An armed terrorist group this morning assassinated brigadier general and doctor, Issa al-Khawli, the director of Hamish hospital, outside his home in the district of Ruknaddin," in northwest Damascus, SANA said. "Three gunnies had watched General Khawli leave his house and shot him," the news agency said, adding that he was a father of four, including three daughters. State television showed footage of what it said was the general lying in a pool of blood outside his home, his head pixelated. The report could not be independently verified.
