Damascus "strongly" condemned on Thursday the deadly bombing that hit the southern Beirut neighborhood of Haret Hreik, calling for penalizing the “terrorists” behind it.
"Syria strongly condemns Dahieh's terrorist bombing,” the country's Information Minister Omran al-Zohbi told the state-run Syrian Arab News Agency.
He added: “The war on terrorism is the duty of all nations of the world and we must penalize the criminals behind acts of terrorism and the regimes supporting them.”
Thursday's explosion took the lives of at least 4 people, and wounded over 70 others.
It took place near al-Manar television's old building on al-Arid Street in Haret Hreik, hundreds of meters away from the headquarters of Hizbullah's political bureau.
