Car bomb attack kills two in Syria’s coastal city of Latakia

‘A car bombing in the northwestern Syrian port city of Latakia has reportedly claimed the lives of at least two people with reports of injuries.
An explosive-laden car caused the blast in the Tashreen district of the city on Saturday, Lebanon-based Arabic-language al-Manar television network reported.
It added that the bombing caused casualties but gave no further details.
The so-called Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a UK-based monitoring group, also reported the attack in the city, saying there were several injuries, with some in a critical condition.
The blast came as Syrian government forces, backed by allied fighters from popular defense groups, have been making fresh advances against the Daesh Takfiri terrorist group across the war-ravaged Arab country.’
