At least eight people were killed and 21 others were injured in an explosion during Friday prayers at a mosque in the Wadi al-Dhahab area of the central Syrian city of Homs. This information has been given by Syrian health officials.
The state-run SANA news agency reported that the blast was caused by explosive devices placed in a corner of the Imam Ali bin Abi Talib mosque. At that time the mosque was full of people offering namaz.
Earlier in the day, Najib al-Nassan, director of referral, ambulance and emergency services at the Syrian Ministry of Health, said the death toll could rise as rescue and medical teams continue to assess the situation.
After the blast, security forces cordoned off the area while ambulances took the injured to nearby hospitals. An investigation is underway to determine the circumstances of the attack.
