AMMAN - Two car bombs killed at least six people and wounded several others in Syria's sprawling Rukban refugee camp near the border with Jordan late on Monday, a rebel official and a resident said. One explosion was near a restaurant and the second targeted the camp's market nearby, they said. 'There are at least six civilians dead and the number is expected to rise,' said Mohammad Adnan, a rebel official from Jaish Ahrar al-Ashair who runs the policing of the camp. There was no immediate claim of responsibility. In January, a car bomb killed a number of people in the camp, and Islamic State militants have since launched attacks on Syrian rebels in the area. Rukban, near the joint Syria-Iraq-Jordan border, is home to refugees and also to rebel groups, including the Jaish Ahrar al-Ashair, which fight both President Bashar al-Assad and the Islamic State movement. It was also hit by bomb attacks last year.
