Photo by Mohammed Al Rifai/EPA-EFE June 23 (UPI) -- More than 22 people were killed and another nearly 60 were injured when an Islamic State suicide bomber attacked a church in the Syrian capital of Damascus, officials said. The attack occurred Sunday at the St. Elias Church in the Al-Douweila neighborhood of the capital city. The Syrian ministry of interior said in a statement on X that the suicide bomber entered the church, opened fire and then detonated their explosive vest. Security forces reportedly rushed to the scene and cordoned off the entire area permitting specialized teams to begin their investigation, it said. "These terrorist acts will not deter the Syrian state's efforts to achieve civil peace, nor will they deter Syrians from their choice to unite in the face of all those who seek to undermine their stability and security," Interior Minister Anas Khattab said in a statement on X The casualty toll was initially reported by the ministry of health as nine dead and 13 injured, but the count has steadily climbed in the hours following the attack to 22 killed and 59 injured.
