Second bomb blast reported in Damascus

Syrian state media are reporting a second bomb blast in Damascus, after an earlier suicide attack killed at least 30 people in the capital’s main judicial building.

The SANA news agency says a second suicide bomber blew himself up in a restaurant in the city’s Rabweh district, killing several people.

The Ikhbariyeh TV channel says the attacker was being chased by security agents when he dove into a restaurant and detonated his explosives vest.

There is no immediate claim to either attack.
