(CNN) -- A wave of blasts targeting Syrian government forces killed dozens of people in a popular square Wednesday, opposition activists said.

At least 40 people were killed and about 90 others wounded when three car bombs exploded in Aleppo's Saadallah Al-Jabiri square, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said. The opposition group said most of the casualties were government forces.

Syrian state-run TV, meanwhile, aired footage of the carnage, which included the bloody and mangled bodies of men in military uniforms. The government said at least 25 people were killed and 75 wounded.
