TEHRAN (FNA)- A bomb attack in Northwest Syria killed three people on Sunday, including a journalist working for a publication of the ruling Baath party.


The state news agency reported the killing of Fakhreddine Hassan, a journalist for the Baath party's youth publication.

He was killed along with two other people by a blast that hit their bus on a road in the Northwestern province of Idlib.

Another nine people were wounded in the attack.

International press freedom watchdog Reporters Without Borders recently reported 23 journalists killed in Syria's 30-month crisis, as well as the death of at least 58 citizen journalists.

The conflict has killed more than 110,000 people, according to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.
