Syrian state television reported that a car bomb had exploded in Homs’ al-Zahraa neighborhood on Tuesday morning.
Three people were killed in the attack, said Homs Governor Talal al-Barazi, adding that the blast came in revenge for the recent army gains against terrorists in the area.
On Sunday, the Syrian government regained full control of Homs with the evacuation of the last batch of militants and their families from the city’s al-Waer district.
Also on Tuesday, Syrian authorities destroyed a vehicle rigged with explosives near al-Mustaqbal crossroad on the road to the Damascus International Airport.
