AL-HASAKAH, Syria
Twenty-five people were killed in a bomb attack in northern Syria on Tuesday, according to a local source.
The bomb in the Salihiya neighborhood of provincial capital Al-Hasakah exploded outside a bakery, the source said on condition of anonymity due to safety concerns.
No group has yet claimed responsibility.
Syria has been locked in a vicious civil war since early 2011, when the Bashar al-Assad regime cracked down on pro-democracy. Since then, more than 470,000 people have been killed, according to the Syrian Center for Policy Research.
