Syria: Gulf-backed activists stormed Cairo embassy
Syria's ambassador to Egypt has accused opposition activists backed by oil-rich Gulf Arab nations of storming the country's embassy in Cairo.
Youssef Ahmed said in a statement that unspecified Gulf nations are funding activists from the opposition Syrian National Council, who he says broke down the gates of the embassy and stole documents from inside the building on Friday. He says Egyptian authorities "failed to protect" the embassy. (AP)
