Syria

Rebels abducted and killed a pro-regime imam from the eastern Sheikh Maqsoud neighbourhood of Aleppo, then mutilated his body and dragged it through the streets. Rebels claim that order is being maintained in Raqqa, but lawlessness is increasing in some rebel-held areas, and infighting is reported between secular and jihadist factions. The opposition claims that a ship with Iranian weapons and missiles is on its way to Syria.
