Al-Jazeera Video: Syria: Latest update on 'bomb blast in Damascus'

"Syrian state TV claims a car bomb has exploded in central Damascus. The blast reportedly injured at least three people.

Al Jazeera's Rula Amin reporting from Beirut, in the capital of neighbouring Lebanon, said that "as usual the government and the opposition are accusing each other" following the incident.

"The Syrian opposition says this was a manipulated explosion by the government to show the UN observers that there are terrorist groups in the country," our correspondent said."
