| [Iran Press TV] At least four people have been killed in two kabooms near the holy shrine of Hazrat Zeinab, Prophet Muhammad's granddaughter, in the Syrian capital of Damascus. At least 13 other people also sustained injures in the two simultaneous kabooms near the holy shrine in the southern part of Damascus on Monday, Syria's state news agency SANA reported. The kabooms targeted a security check point located near the shrine, according to the country's police. "A civilian car had stopped at the checkpoint... and a terrorist got out wearing an explosive vest which he detonated," said the report, adding that after a few moments another individual who was in the car blew it up. No group has yet grabbed credit for the attack, but foreign-backed Takfiri ...an adherent of takfir wal hijra, an offshoot of Salafism that regards everybody who doesn't agree with them as apostates who must be killed... groups such as ISIL and the al-Qaeda-linked al-Nusra ...the current nom de guerre of al-Qaeda in the Levant, which isn't to be confused with al-Qaeda in Iraq and the Levant... Front are committing gruesome acts of terrorism in their operations in the Arab country. Hazrat Zeinab (Peace be upon her) is one of the sisters of Imam Hossein, the third Shia Imam, peace be upon him. At least seven people were killed and 20 others injured when a kaboom hit a bus carrying Lebanese Shia pilgrims in the central district of Souq al-Hamadiyeh in the Syrian capital in a similar heinous act of terrorism on February 1. |
