Bomb blast rocks Syrian TV station, multiple injuries reported - state TV (PHOTOS)
A bomb has detonated at a state-run TV and radio building in the capital of Damascus, Syrian TV reported.
The explosion occured on the third floor of the building, outside of the office of the station's director, Sky News reported.
Between three and five people were injured in the blast. The station continued to broadcast in the wake of the bombing.
The pro-government private Syrian TV station Al-Ikhbariya broadcast pictures of employees inspecting damage in the building and tending to a wounded colleague, the AP reported.
Seven journalists and workers were killed in June when an armed group attacked the headquarters of Syria’s al-Ikhbaryia TV.
