One armed group fired rocket-propelled grenades at the Central Bank premises in Saba’ Bahrat Square on Sunday, the Syrian state television reported.

Another armed group attacked a police patrol in the Rikn Al-Deen neighborhood near Ibn al-Nafis hospital, injuring four policemen.

Syrian state newspapers said on Sunday that al-Qaeda is leading the terrorist attacks in the country with the support of the United States and some Arab governments.

Newspapers said the methods and choices of targets in the terror attacks across the country testified to al-Qaeda’s involvement, and alleged that the terrorist groups are being supported politically by Washington and bankrolled by some Arab countries.

Meanwhile, the armed gang known as ‘Al-Nusrah Front’ has claimed responsibility for the deadly bombing that rocked Damascus on Friday.

The blast occurred near a mosque and school in the al-Midan neighborhood in the central part of the capital when a terrorist detonated the explosives he was carrying, killing at least 11 people and injuring dozens of others.

Since the beginning of the unrest in the country last year, scores of people, mostly security forces, have been killed in bombings and other terrorist attacks.

Syria has been experiencing unrest since mid-March 2011. Although calm has returned to most parts of the country with a ceasefire, there have been reports of sporadic clashes in some areas, with Damascus accusing the armed groups of violating the truce by continuing the attacks on government forces.
