Syria car bomb kills one; drone strike near Lebanon targets vehicles

The Syrian flag flies at half-staff in Damascus on May 20, 2024, after the death of Iran's president in a helicopter crash. A car bomb exploded on May 25 in the Damascus neighborhood where the Iranian consulate was located before it was destroyed last month in an aerial attack.

A bomb attached to a car exploded early Saturday in the western part of the Syrian capital that is home to several diplomatic missions, killing one person and causing material damage, state media reported.
