Al-Qaeda leader supports Syrian uprising
Al-Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri said he supports the Syrian armed resistance in a new video message, US website monitors said on Sunday.
In the video, titled "Onwards, Lions of Syria," Zawahiri accused the Syrian regime for crimes against its citizens, and praised those rising up against the government. Zawahiri called on Syrians not to rely on the West or Arab governments. Al-Qaeda is suspected to be responsible for the blasts in Haleb, Syria, on Friday, killing 28. (News agencies)
