The terrorist Free Syrian Army (FSA) has claimed responsibility for the attack. The FSA has also warned of more violence in the capital in the coming days.
“We are certain that in the face of hardship, the authorities and the people of this country [Syria]– all its true patriots — will display the required political will and desire to find a rapid peaceful settlement of their internal crisis,” the statement added.
Meanwhile, the Syrian army has pledged a crushing response to armed groups fighting against the government, stressing that it will continue to fight terrorism and wipe out criminal gangs.
