At least 15 people were killed when a suicide bomber blew himself up at the Mar Elias Church in the Dweila neighborhood of Syria’s capital Damascus, security sources say.

The incident marks the first suicide bombing inside Damascus since Bashar al-Assad was toppled by an Islamist-led rebel insurgency in December.

Syria’s interior ministry says the suicide bomber was a member of the Islamic State. He entered the church, opened fire, and then detonated his explosive vest, the ministry adds in a statement.

ISIS behind deadly church suicide bombing near Damascus, Syrian interior minister says

Attack took place Sunday at Mar Elias Church in Dweil’a

ISIS suicide bomber kills 22 at Christian church in Syria, reports The Guardian

The Islamic State is believed to be behind a deadly suicide bombing that happened at a Greek Orthodox church in Syria on Sunday.

At least 22 people were killed, and 63 others were injured in the attack that took place at the Mar Elias Church in Dweil’a, located on the outskirts of Damascus. It reportedly began while people were praying. The perpetrator first opened fire on the worshipers, before detonating himself.

While no group immediately claimed responsibility for the attack, Syrian Interior Ministry spokesman Noureddine Al-Baba suggested ISIS as a likely culprit following a preliminary investigation.

“The security of places of worship is a red line,” Al-Baba said further, castigating ISIS and what remains of the former government of Ba’athist dictator Bashar al-Assad as actors trying to destabilize Syria.

The country’s foreign ministry echoed Al-Baba, describing the attack as “a desperate attempt to undermine national coexistence and to destabilize the country.”

The attack drew international condemnation. “These terrible acts of cowardice have no place in the new tapestry of integrated tolerance and inclusion that Syrians are weaving,” U.S. Ambassador to Turkey and Special Envoy for Syria Tom Barrack wrote on X.

“We continue to support the Syrian government as it fights against those who are seeking to create instability and fear in their country and the broader region,” the post concluded.
