DAMASCUS – Stunned residents of Damascus's upscale Mazzeh district watched Tuesday as rescuers combed through the rubble of the Iranian consulate, destroyed in a strike blamed on Israel that has revived memories of the darkest days of Syria's civil war.
Damascus has been spared the worst of the civil conflict, which began with anti-government protests in 2011 before drawing in international jihadists and foreign armies, and laying waste to parts of the country. Israel has launched hundreds of air strikes in Syria since civil war broke out, targeting Iran-backed forces including Lebanon's Hezbollah movement as well as Syrian army positions and weapons depots.
Residents nearby cleared away shattered glass and removed damaged cars, and shops were closed around the embassy, in an area also home to other diplomatic missions and UN offices. "I didn't know what happened. One moment I was standing on the sidewalk, and the next I found myself" on another part of the street, he said.Emergency teams worked through the night and on Tuesday pulled two bodies from the building, including a woman in her fifties.
