Syria's new authorities have detained an Egyptian militant who had fought with Islamist forces against toppled Syrian leader Bashar Al-Assad's rule over threats he made on social media to the Cairo government, a Syrian interior ministry source and an Arab security source told Reuters on Wednesday, APA reports.
The militant, Ahmed al-Mansour, posted a video this week in which he said Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi would meet the same fate as Assad.
He was arrested over that and other posts and is currently in a detention center, the sources said.
