Press TV- Nearly a dozen people have lost their lives and several others sustained injuries when a massive bomb explosion targeted a military camp in Syria’s western coastal province of Latakia.

Local sources, speaking on condition of anonymity, said a car rigged with explosives was detonated by remote control in Salma village, which lies northeast of the provincial capital city of Latakia, on Saturday afternoon.

No militant group or individual has claimed responsibility for the attack yet, but such assaults bear the hallmarks of those carried out by the Daesh Takfiri terrorists.
