A bomb went off outside a mosque in Damascus on Friday, killing at least five policemen and wounding others, the latest violence in the capital, once the impregnable stronghold of President Bashar Assad's regime.
The bomb exploded in the northern neighborhood of Rukneddine as worshippers were leaving the Rukniyeh mosque after Friday prayers. Syrian TV said five policemen were killed, and an official at the scene told The Associated Press that six died. (AP)
