The 1986 Damascus bombings were a series of terrorist acts perpetrated in Damascus, Syria in 1986, considered to be the deadliest acts of terrorism against civilians since the quelling of the Islamist uprising in Syria in 1982. The bombings appeared to be aimed at destabilizing the Syrian government under Hafez al-Assad with links being between the suspected perpetrators and Iraq.

Bombings

On 13 March 1986, a truck bomb detonated under a bridge in a Damascus suburb that left 60 people dead and injured 100 more.[2][1][3] A month later, 144 were killed by a series of bombings in five towns across Syria, including Damascus, with buses being a prime target.[4][1]

Alleged perpetrators

Immediately after the Damascus truck bombing, the Syrian government placed the blame on Iraq, citing their desire to destabilize the regime. After the April 1986 bombings claimed the lives of an additional 144 people, a previously unknown group with pro-Iraq sympathies calling themselves the 17 October Group for the Liberation of the Syrian People, claimed responsibility.[5] The BBC reported in 2008 that "pro-Iraqi militants" were "believed" to be responsible for both the April and March bombings.[6]
