Syrian authorities have made arrests in last week's dam collapse that killed 22 people and left thousands homeless, the official Syrian Arab News Agency said Tuesday. 

 

The agency did not identify those arrested or give their number, saying only that they belonged to three state-owned firms connected to the building of the Zayzoun dam, constructed in 1996, in northern Syria. (Albawaba.com)
