Suicide bomber with reported ties to Islamic State kills 22 and injures 63 at Greek Orthodox church in Syria, as officials condemn the attack amid rising Middle East tensions.

While no group immediately claimed responsibility for the mass-casualty attack, Syrian Interior Ministry spokesman Noureddine Al-Baba suggested ISIS as a likely culprit following a preliminary investigation.
"The security of places of worship is a red line," Al-Baba said further, castigating ISIS and what remains of the former government of Ba'athist dictator Bashar al-Assad as actors trying to destabilize Syria.
