Images purportedly showing the aftermath of the attack have appeared on social media. RT cannot verify their authenticity.

No group or person has so far claimed responsibility for the attack.

A Ruptly video shows victims injured in the explosion treated at a nearby hospital. A woman with multiple shrapnel wounds on her face is seen in a ward, while another patient is seen in a surgery surrounded by a team of doctors.

This is yet another attack in a string of bombings targeting civilians in Syria. In March, two bombs went off in Damascus on the same day, hitting the Justice Palace in al-Hamidiyeh and a restaurant in the al-Rabweh area, killing more than 30 people in total.

In late February, a car bombing near the Syrian city of Al-Bab in Aleppo Province claimed the lives of almost 70 people, mostly civilians. Responsibility for the attack was claimed by Islamic State.
