    No fewer than 14 dead in bomb explosion, As police fire teargas at Lekki Tollgate protesters

    Teargas Fired As Police, Security Agents Battle To Control Protesters From Taking Over Lekki Tollgate

    Palpable tension is brewing at the Lekki tollgate in Lagos State now as police fired tear gas canisters to disperse the large crowd of protesters at the venue.

    Security Operatives waiting anticipatedly for the arrival of #Endsars protest anniversary participants at Lekki Tollgate, on October 20, 2021.

    The crowd had become too large to control for the security operatives as hundreds of vehicles were blocking the free flow of traffic along the road.

    Unlike the situation in the last one hour, when the protesters were only going in a vehicle procession to and from the toll gate area, the area has become crowded and rowdy.

    As of the time of this report, hundreds of vehicles had been parked near the toll gate and occupants of some of the vehicles have disembarked and are on the road.

    The protesters are gradually occupying the toll gate despite the stiff resistance put up by the security operatives at the toll gate.

    No fewer than 14 dead in bomb explosion

    At least 14 people were killed and several others were wounded in central Damascus on Wednesday morning in an explosion on a Syrian military bus, Syrian state TV reported.

    According to additional reports from Syrian and Lebanese outlets, the casualties were Iranian officers.

    Syrian state TV showed footage of the charred bus, reporting that the blasts occurred while people were heading to work and school.

    As of yet, according to the reports, no organization has claimed responsibility for the blast, which occurred at a main bus-transfer point under the Hafez al-Assad bridge, where vehicles converge and head out to different neighborhoods of the capital.

    Two explosive devices reportedly went off as the bus was on the bridge, the reports said, adding that a third device was defused by an army engineering unit.

    The explosion was the deadliest in Damascus in years. It was also a rare occurrence in recent years, since the capture by Syrian government forces of suburbs formerly held by Sunni Islamist insurgents in the country’s decade-long conflict.

    “It is a cowardly act,” Damascus police commander Maj. Gen. Hussein Jumaa told state TV, adding that a police force had cordoned off the area immediately and made sure that there were no more bombs. He urged people to inform authorities about any suspicious object they see.

    The civil war in Syria that began in March 2011 has left more than 350,000 people dead and displaced half the country’s population, including five million who are refugees abroad.
