DUBAI: The Islamist militant group the Nusra Front has claimed responsibility for the assassination of the governor of Syria’s Hama province last month, according to the US-based SITE intelligence monitoring group.
Syrian state television last month reported that “terrorists” had assassinated Dr Anas Abdul Razak, the governor of Hama, with a car bomb.
No one immediately claimed responsibility for the attack, but the finger was pointed at Nusra which is active in the area.
