              Report: Blast at Syria's Aleppo University Kills 15

   by VOA News

   A Syrian rights group says two explosions killed 15 people Tuesday at
   the University of Aleppo, in Syria's largest city.

   The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said there has
   been no claim of responsibility for the blasts.

   Syrian state television described the explosions as a "terrorist
   attack," but did not give further details or specify the number of
   victims.

   Aleppo, Syria's commercial hub, has been wracked by violence since
   rebels launched an all-out assault on the city in July 2012. The
   university lies in government-controlled territory.

   The Observatory said more than 50 people have been killed Tuesday
   across Syria as rebel fighters continue their push to overthrow
   President Basher al-Assad's government.

   The 21-month conflict that has killed at least 60,000 people.
