Ten killed by car bomb in Damascus

A car bomb in a Damascus suburb has killed 10 people.

Syrian officials said the blast in Jaramana also wounded 41 people and caused heavy damage.

The UN tried to broker a cease-fire over the four-day Eid al-Adha Muslim holiday, but the truce collapsed almost immediately after it was supposed to take effect.
