BEIRUT (Sputnik) - A suicide bomber blew himself up in a church in the Dweila district of Damascusm Syria, on Sunday.
It's been confirmed that 8 people were killed and more than 20 injured as a result of the attack, a Sputnik correspondent reports.
Women and children are said to be among the victims of the explosion.
The terrorist who attacked the church was a member of the Islamic State terrorist organization (IS, banned in Russia), the Syrian Interior Ministry said on Sunday.
"A militant belonging to the terrorist organization IS stormed the Church of St. Elijah in the Duweila area of Damascus and opened fire," the SANA news agency quoted the ministry as saying.
The terrorist then activated the explosive device he had brought along, the ministry added.
Something attempted at Michigan church too:

The evil ones are on a rampage….that includes the demoncrats in the US and their terrorist tentacles.
(breaking) Meanwhile, in Wayne MI, some screwball rammed his truck into a church, then shot a security guard in the leg, with some kind of rifle, while a church deacon ran him over in *his* truck, making an opening for the security guard to shoot him dead. (very still developing).
The church minister then said they had been working on their defense for at least 10 years.
You have ti work on defense when your church is 11.1 miles from Dearbornistan.
Weird title for the article. “Syria’s Damascus“? Who else’s Damascus would it be? Could they not say “Damascus, Syria“?
More pictures.
