In news from Syria, groups opposed to the regime of President Bashar al-Assad have agreed to form a unity coalition and elected cleric Mouaz al-Khatib as its leader. The decision comes amidst mounting violence between Assad’s regime and rebel forces. Officials with the United Nations refugee agency say 11,000 Syrians fled to Turkey and other neighboring countries over a 24-hour period at the end of last week. More than 400,000 Syrian refugees are now registered with the United Nations. Meanwhile on Sunday, Israel fired a guided missile into Syria in what they said was a warning shot after mortar fire from Syrian fighting spilled over into the Golan Heights.
