Assassinated Sunni cleric buried in Damascus
Middle East
Thousands of Syrians have turned out for the funeral of the prominent Sunni cleric Sheikh Muhammed Said al-Bouti, who was assassinated by a suicide bomber in a Damascus mosque Friday for supporting the political settlement plan espoused by President Bashar Assad.
The pro-regime cleric was one of 50 people who died in the explosion.
In the meantime, government forces and rebels have continued to fight it out in an area just south of the Syrian capital, TASS reports.
