Mortar attack by terrorists leaves one dead in Damascus

At least one person has been killed after Takfiri terrorists fired mortar rounds at residential areas in the Syrian capital, Damascus.

Syria’s state television said on Thursday that the Mezzeh neighborhood and Ommayad Square in Damascus came under mortar attack by militants linked to the al-Qaeda-affiliated al-Nusra Front.

The violence came after two days of aerial bombing of areas held by terrorists.

A day earlier, at least a dozen people lost their lives and 20 others became injured in separate rocket attacks carried out by Daesh foreign-backed Takfiri terrorists in Aleppo and other areas.

Earlier this month, at least 17 civilians lost their lives and 101 others were injured when several rockets fired by militants struck neighborhoods across Dara’a.
