The Saudi story version of Damascus explosion

Saudi news­pa­per reported a dif­fer­ent sce­nario than the offi­cial report released by the Syr­ian News Agency “SANA”. Before we see the Saudi story you can read the Syr­ian offi­cial ver­sion in Eng­lish here.

Mid­dle East trav­el­ers rec­og­nize such 4x4 cars men­tioned in the above link used for long-distance pas­sen­gers trans­port, from/to Iraq, Jor­dan and Lebanon.

Saudi news­pa­per Al-Riyadh claims that it based its story on eye­wit­nesses at the scene of the explo­sion. The story goes as the following:

There was unusual busy traf­fic early hours in the morn­ing at that day because one of the roads is blocked for repa­ra­tions and main­tains. Few min­utes before the blast there was a traf­fic acci­dent between a black-colored car and a truck car­ry­ing sands [prob­a­bly this truck related to the road work], after few sec­onds the black car exploded.

Is the traf­fic acci­dent caused the explosion??

One eye­wit­ness added this:

We saw two burned bod­ies inside the car and two out­side the car, also the two bod­ies in the truck.

This dif­fer­ent from the Syr­ian story which reported “one” sui­cide bomber.

last, is what Al-Akhbar reported that Egypt and Saudi Ara­bia are the only two Arab coun­tries didn’t issue an offi­cial state con­do­lences for the vic­tims of the Syria explosion.
