Two Bombs Rock Damascus

Two bombs in central Damascus killed one person and wounded several others on Wednesday, a monitoring group said, a day after another bombing killed 13 people in the Syrian capital.

One bomb detonated near a police station on the Khaled bin al-Walid main road, killing one, and the second went off in Bab al-Musalla square, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said.

State news agency SANA said the blasts wounded 15 people, saying the bombs were planted by "terrorists", the term the regime uses for rebels trying to topple it.

Several blasts have already targeted Khaled bin al-Walid road.

On Tuesday, a bomb ripped through the Damascus district of Marjeh, killing 13 people. A day earlier, Prime Minister Wael al-Halqi survived a car bombing in an upscale area of the capital.
