BEIRUT (AP) ? A prominent Syrian comedian has been killed in Damascus after apparently being caught in the crossfire between rebels and government troops.
The SANA state news agency says Yassin Bakoush was killed Sunday by a rebel mortar round that landed on his car in the Yarmouk Palestinian refugee camp in southern Damascus.
The anti-regime Syrian Observatory for Human Rights activist group says Bakoush was killed when a rocket-propelled grenade launched by government troops slammed into his car.
The part of Damascus where Bakoush was killed has been hit by fierce clashes between rebels and regime forces in recent months.
The 75-year-old Bakoush was known for playing characters that were likeable but naive and dim-witted.
SANA said Bakoush is survived by11 children.
