Damascus, Sept 5 (IBNS) : In all 18 people were killed in a series of explosions that rocked government-held territories across Syria on Monday, the state-run media reported.

The first explosion took place when a car bomb went off in the central city of Homs in the morning, killing two people and injuring seven.

An hour later, five people were killed in a blast in the northeastern city of Hasakah which was followed by a car bomb blast in the coastal city of Tartus, where eleven were killed. 

There was no immediate claim for the attacks.

Syria has been reeling under a civil war  that has reportedly  killed over 280,000 people and  displaced millions.
