Syrian state media says 11 dead in new sectarian clashes near Damascus
Syria state media says that 11 people have been killed in clashes that erupted overnight between security forces and “outlaw groups” near Damascus, as sectarian violence a day earlier spread.
“The number of dead after outlaw groups targeted civilians and security forces” in the Sahnaya area “has risen to 11 dead and a number of wounded,” state news agency SANA says, citing a health ministry statement, without elaborating on the identity of those killed.
