Foreign-backed militants in Syria have assassinated the governor of Hama province in a car bombing, state television reports.
"Terrorists assassinated Anas Abdel Razzaq al-Naem, the Hama governor, in a car bomb attack in the Jarajma district of Hama," it said on Sunday.
Syria has been gripped by deadly unrest since 2011. A very large number of the militants operating inside Syria are foreign nationals.
According to reports, the West and its regional allies - especially Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and Turkey - are supporting the militants inside Syria.
