DAMASCUS, Syria -- The death toll from a suicide bomb attack on a church in Syria has risen to 25, state media said Monday.

Pope Leo XIV on Tuesday said he was “deeply saddened” by the terrorist attack on a church in Damascus, Syria, and assured his prayers for those mourning the 25 people who were killed.

The death toll from Sunday’s suicide bombing at a Damascus church has risen to at least 27, marking one of the deadliest attacks on Christians in the Syrian capital in over a decade.

At least 20 people have been killed and dozens more wounded in a suicide bombing inside a church in Syria, according to the country's Ministry of Health and security officials.
