Bombing in Damascus, Syria
The United States condemns today’s terrorist attack in Damascus, Syria, which killed at least 17 innocent people and injured numerous others. This attack is particularly abhorrent as it comes during the holy month of Ramadan. We extend our deepest sympathies to the victims and their families.
