BEIRUT, May 22 (Reuters) – Five people were killed on
Tuesday when an explosive device detonated in the Damascus
neighbourhood of Qaboun, the British-based Syrian Observatory
for Human Rights said.
Qaboun, in northern Damascus, has been a centre of
opposition protests demanding the end of President Bashar
al-Assad’s rule. It has seen fighting between Assad loyalists
and rebels.
