At least 30 people are reported to have been killed by a car bombing in the central Syrian city of Hama.
The British-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said a checkpoint operated by Syrian government troops was targeted.
State media also reported the attack.
Hama saw some of the largest demonstrations against the rule of President Bashar al-Assad in the first months after the Syrian uprising began in March 2011.
But in late summer 2011, security forces stormed the city and have maintained control ever since.
"According to initial reports, the blast targeted a checkpoint manned by regime troops near an agricultural vehicle company, and ambulances could be seen in the area."
