For his part, the Lebanese foreign minister Adnan Mansour condemned Damascus terrorist bombing.

Other Syrian and Arab figures and parties deplored Mazze  area explosion  and stressed that the

the policy of bombing and intimidation by shedding blood of the  Syrian is the  only card  so far remained in the hands of the enemies of the Syrian people against achieving  a political solution and dialogue  to eliminate the crisis .

They expressed  deepest condolences to the families of the martyrs and wished speedy recovery to the wounded and injured. They also  expressed confidence in the Syrian people’s ability to proceed  for substantive choices to renounce violence and get out of the crisis through national dialogue.
