At least 15 people have been killed and dozens injured after a car presumably packed with 150 kg of explosives exploded near a hospital in central Homs in western Syria, AFP reports citing authorities.

The incident happened near a hospital in the al-Zahra neighborhood of the city. The area has seen several bombings, as it’s home to the Alawite minority, to whom the ruling elite in Syria belongs.

Syrian state television described the attack as “two large terrorist explosions”. The second explosion reportedly took place in a nearby shop a few minutes after the car bombing detonated.

SANA’s first report said at least 8 people were killed and 25 injured. Later the state news agency was talking of “dozens civilian casualties.”
