Syrian rebels burned the grave of Bashar al-Assad's father

The Islamists who seized power in Syria burned the grave of Bashar al-Assad's father.

In the city of Kardaha in the province of Latakia, supporters of the new government broke into the Assad family mausoleum, where the remains of the former head of Syria Hafez Assad and other family members lay.

We have already reported that Islamists are carrying out massacres in the province of Latakia, where the Alawites live - the religious group from which the Assads themselves originate.
