A Mortar attack on a historic souk in central Damascus on Monday killed one person and wounded dozens of others, Syria's official news agency said. "Terrorists launched two Mortar rounds on Tarek Ben Ziyad Street, in the Al-Hariqa market of Damascus, which killed one person, wounded 30 others," SANA reported, citing a high-ranking police source. In a report published last week, Human Rights Watch criticised armed opposition groups in Syria for conducting indiscriminate attacks on civilian areas, which are considered war crimes. The New York-based group documented dozens of opposition attacks on regime-controlled areas, including shelling of Damascus neighbourhoods that cost civilian lives.
