Islamist fighters struck the Syrian capital with at least 38 rockets on Sunday, killing Seven people, a monitoring group said, in one of heaviest attacks on Damascus in over a year. The Saudi-backed Islam Army, based in the eastern Ghouta region near Damascus, had warned earlier that it would hit back against an air strike last week in Ghouta in which more than 40 people were killed. Damascus residents said Sunday's rockets seemed to be mortars and Katyusha. Rami Abdulrahman, head of the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights which monitors the violence in the country, said this was the heaviest attack on the capital for more than a year.
