DAMASCUS, April 8 (Xinhua) -- An explosive device tore through a communal bus in Syria's central city of Homs, killing a woman and wounding 25 others on Saturday, state news agency SANA reported.

The bomb was left behind the driver seat and exploded near the Hisya area in Homs countryside.

The blast is the latest in a series of explosions targeting Homs recently, with two similar bombings targeting buses last month.

In February, six suicide bombers detonated themselves in two security headquarters in Homs, killing at least 42 people.
