FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda According to Syrian state media, SANA, the explosion occurred on Thursday morning in the capital’s al-Sayeda Zainab suburb.
Witnesses said the bomber detonated an explosives-packed van that he drove into a parking lot about 50 meters from the shrine despite efforts by guards to stop him. The blast shattered the shrine’s windows, knocked down chandeliers and electric ceiling fans and cracked some of its mosaic walls.
The United Nations observers, who are monitoring the implementation of a peace plan proposed by UN-Arab League envoy, Kofi Annan, visited the scene of the blast, which is believed to have been aimed at a security department.
