A Libyan emir of the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant was reportedly killed in clashes with regime forces in Latakia. The Islamist Jund al Sham battalion claimed an attack in Homs that killed nine civilians. Control of the main crossing between rebel-held and regime areas of Aleppo has been given to the rebel Ahrar Sureya brigade, which opposition activists have accused of torture and extortion in Aleppo. The head of the Syrian National Coalition said that ethnic minorities would have a place in a post-Assad Syria.
