Monitor says death toll in Damascus bombing rises to 18

The death toll in a suicide bombing in eastern Damascus earlier today rises to 18 people, a monitor says, in the bloodiest attack to hit the Syrian capital in months.

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights says the dead include at least seven pro-regime security personnel and two civilians.

It had not identified the remaining victims.
