Syria: Rocket fire by terrorists kills 29 in Damascus suburb

At least 29 people have been killed in a rocket attack by foreign-backed Takfiri terrorist on a market in a suburb of the Syrian capital, Damascus.

The state television said on Tuesday that the rocket fire by terrorist groups hit Jaramana area east of the capital.

It had initially been reported that 20 people were killed in the attack.

Over the past few weeks, Syria and Russia have cornered foreign-backed terrorists in Eastern Ghouta, a suburb of Damascus, as part of their campaign to liberate civilians holed up there and end terrorist attacks from the suburb on the capital.

On March 16, the Syrian army said its forces had liberated 70 percent of militant-held areas in Eastern Ghouta.
