Bomb near Syrian capital kills 16 - Activist
BEIRUT (AP) — Syrian rebels assaulted a checkpoint in a pro-government suburb of Damascus on Saturday, setting off a suicide vehicle bomb that killed 16 soldiers, activists said.
The state news agency SANA confirmed the blast in the suburb of Jaramana and said it caused casualties, but did not give a number. The rebels are dominated by Syria's Sunni Muslim majority.
