AZAZ, Syria
Syria’s opposition-held city of Azaz was rocked by a car bomb on Thursday that left at least 10 people injured, according to local sources.
Anadolu Agency correspondents based in the area said a bomb-laden vehicle had exploded near the city’s district council building, injuring a number of bystanders.
The injured have since been taken to hospitals in neighboring Turkey, they added.
The local authorities cordoned off the area in the wake of Thursday’s attack, for which no group has yet claimed responsibility.
