A powerful explosion occurred in a crowded café in downtown Damascus, Syria, causing the death of at least five people and injuring another 16, according to reports from the SANA news agency.


The bomb was planted in the café, located near the Palace of Justice, and the toll was confirmed by the head of emergency medical services. No further details about the attack have been provided, and the incident has not been claimed so far.


Damascus has been the scene of several attacks since the overthrow of President Bashar al-Assad in 2014, including a recent incident in which a car bomb killed one soldier and injured another 18 people in front of the Ministry of Defense. This explosion underscores the ongoing violence in the Syrian capital, despite stabilization efforts.
