Liwa al-Quds, pro-regime militia, has mourned seven militants said they had been killed in the suicide bombings attacks that struck Damascus on Sunday.
The state-run media said the casualties were 19 civilians but activists assured that the three bombings had targeted regime and its militias’ checkpoints in the eastern gate and in Tahrir square in front of the Air Intelligence headquarters.
Last week, Liwa al-Quds mourned 17 militants killed in June in clashes with ISIS northeast Palmyra, according to statement posted online.
The Palestinian militia has been playing key role in the Syrian army gains in the last few weeks that enabled the regime for the first time to reach the border with Iraq and to take ground in Deir Ezzor and Raqqa provinces.
Damascus has been spared the large-scale battles that have devastated other major Syrian cities during the country's six-year civil war.
