(Ahlul Bayt News Agency) - More than 20 people were killed on Monday in blasts targeting security buildings in the city of Edleb, northwest Syria, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said.

The majority of those killed were members of the security forces, the Britain-based group said.

A powerful blast, probably a car bomb, was also reported near the capital Damascus, causing casualties, the Observatory added.

"A strong explosion shook the suburbs of Qudsiya and it appears it was a car bomb," it said. "Initial reports indicate there are casualties."
