DAMASCUS, April 16 (Xinhua) -- The death toll of the deadly bombing that rocked the convoy of Shiite evacuees in northern Syria rose to 112, a monitor group reported on Sunday.
The blast, carried out by a suicide bomber driving a booby-trapped potato truck, rocked the rebel-held Rashideen area in the countryside of Aleppo province, where buses carrying 5,000 pro-government Shiite people were waiting the reactivation of a deal designed to secure their transportation to government-controlled area in Aleppo.
