Three Alawites killed after attack on Syria government forces: monitor
BEIRUT: Three Alawite civilians were killed in western Syria overnight, hours after an attack on government forces killed at least one officer, a war monitor said on Wednesday. Syrian authorities said four civilians were targeted by unknown attackers in the Tal Kalakh area near the Lebanese border, killing two of them. Since an Islamist-led offensive toppled longtime ruler Bashar al-Assad in December, the Alawite community, which he hails from, has been repeatedly attacked. Britain-based war monitor the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said the three civilians were killed in Baruha village by 'local armed groups' who also set fire to shops and cars. The head of security in Homs province, Murhaf Naasan, said: 'Four civilians were directly targeted by unknown people, killing two of them and critically wounding two others.' The deaths comes hours after Syria's state-run SANA news agency reported that a security officer had been killed in an attack in the Tal Kalakh area. In March, sectarian massacres in the Alawite heartland on Syria's Mediterranean coast saw security forces and allied groups kill more than 1,700 civilians, mostly Alawites, according to the Observatory's figures. The Islamist-led government accused Assad loyalists of sparking the violence by launching coordinated attacks on security forces. The government has since launched an inquiry.

Wan Fayhsal defends PAS over hate speech claim, blames DAP instead
Faced with a reminder that PAS had been identified as one of the biggest amplifiers of ethno-religious hate, Machang MP Wan Ahmad Fayhsal Wan Ahmad Kamal launched a spirited defence of his Perikatan Nasional colleagues. Speaking as a panellist on BBC World Questions, the former Bersatu Youth chief instead sought to shift blame to DAP - a move that drew jeers from a live audience in Petaling Jaya last night. 'Thank you for your research on my (component) party members when it comes to race and religious rhetoric,' he said, addressing an audience member who cited findings from a
