Bombs planted by rebels explode at a school building occupied by security forces and pro-government militias in the Syrian capital of Damascus on Tuesday (September 25), activists and rebels said.
Residents said smoke was billowing from the area in southeastern Damascus and an activist said ambulances were rushing to the scene.
Syria TV quoted a government official as saying two improvised explosives planted by "terrorists" blew up near the "Sons of Martyrs" school in Damascus. It said seven people were wounded, with minor damage to buildings.
Rebels said they expected high casualties from the blast but they did not give any confirmed reports of deaths.
