At least 14 civilians were killed and dozens wounded in multiple near-simultaneous terror attacks in Syria's western city of Homs Monday, state media reported.

Syrian state television said dozens had been killed and injured in a triple explosion in the al-Zahra neighborhood. "The preliminary toll in simultaneous terrorist explosions that hit the city's al-Zahra neighborhood is 14 dead and 132 wounded," the television reported.

It said two explosions caused by car bombs and a blast caused by a suicide attacker wearing an explosives-laden belt hit Al-Zahraa's main square.

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights monitoring group confirmed the blasts and reported at least 32 dead.

The attack came less than three weeks after ISIL terrorist group claimed explosions in the same neighborhood that left 16 people dead.
