A suspected bomb hidden in a car has killed a man and his daughter in Jaramana, on the south-eastern edge of the Syrian capital, Damascus, Al Jazeera reports. The man's wife was seriously hurt in Saturday's blast. Syria's Internal Security Forces sealed off the area and opened an investigation.
Jaramana has a large Druze community and has seen tensions between some Druze residents and Sunni supporters of President Ahmed al-Sharaa's government. Witnesses said the vehicle was parked between two blocks of flats in a usually quiet residential area. Al Jazeera's correspondent said security in the capital remained complex despite improvements since Bashar al-Assad was toppled two years ago, noting recent attacks that authorities blamed on ISIL, most of which had targeted security forces rather than civilians.
