   by VOA News

   Syrian activists and state media say a bomb blast near a school has
   killed at least five people. Some reports say students are among the
   dead, but the reports have not been confirmed.
   The car explosion happened Sunday in the town of Umm al-Amed in the
   province of Homs.
   The United Nations says at least 70,000 people have been killed in the
   nearly two-year conflict between Syrian rebels and the government.
