ANHA correspondent in Homs reported that a motorcycle carrying armed men stopped in front of a shop on Bab al-Dreib Road in the city and opened fire on those inside. 

The attack resulted in the deaths of citizen Ibrahim Saleh Al-Ali, known as “Ibrahim Asfour,” and his wife Suad Wannous, while Rajeh Aqoul was injured.

The crime sparked widespread public outrage and condemnation over the continued targeting of civilians in sectarian-style attacks.

“Sectarian killings in Homs are happening daily, as if lives have become cheap for those who embrace the rhetoric of the new terrorism,” residents of the city told ANHA correspondent.

These crimes come amid ongoing security chaos and disorder in Transitional Government- held areas.
