Syria’s Brotherhood demands probe into bombing
Syria’s Muslim Brotherhood called for an international and Arab probe into a deadly suicide bombing Friday in Damascus, saying it was an act benefitting the regime. “The killings in Syria will continue and the Syrian regime will keep hiding behind Al-Qaeda and the terrorists... unless someone confronts the regime and takes it to account for its crimes,” said the Brotherhood.
State media reported 25 people were killed and dozens wounded in a suicide bombing carried out Friday by “terrorists” in the historic Damascus neighbourhood of Midan. The banned Brotherhood, in a statement received by AFP in Nicosia, charged the regime of Syrian President Bashar Assad, which has been facing daily protests since mid-March, orchestrated the bombing.
