Kuwait described the explosions as “a criminal act” and expressed solidarity with Damascus, while Oman reaffirmed its rejection of “violence and terrorism in all their forms and manifestations.”

Qatar also condemned the blasts and voiced support for measures taken by Syrian authorities to preserve security.
