On Thursday, the Latin American country granted Assange “diplomatic asylum,” but the British government has repeated the threat that if Assange steps one foot off embassy grounds he will be arrested and extradited to Sweden. “Diplomatic” rather than “political” asylum seems a small change, but it’s an important one. British Foreign Secretary William Hague has insisted that Britain does not recognize the status of diplomatic asylum, nor is it an internationally accepted means of granting refuge.

Video: Syrian rebels determined to win or die trying Syria’s official SANA news agency said “armed terrorist groups” – the regime’s phrase for rebels – had been pushed out from areas on both sides of the airport, which is located about 15 kilometers (nine miles) southeast of Aleppo’s historical center. The report did not make it clear whether the fighting was closer to the international airport or the adjacent military airfield, a base for carrying out airstrikes on rebel sites in the north. Aleppo carries major symbolic and strategic value. It’s the commercial hub of northern Syria and close to rebel-held territory and critical supply corridors to the Turkish border. Rebels have sought control of the ancient center, dominated by a medieval castle that is part of the city’s UNESCO World Heritage Site. That would deal an embarrassing blow to the regime’s claim that its overwhelming firepower can halt opposition advances. “Those who think that the Syrian Arab army will be defeated are dreaming,” said Syria’s Foreign Minister Walid Moallem in a state TV interview late Thursday. Civilians, meanwhile, have been increasingly caught in the crossfire, and many are fleeing to safety in nearby Turkey. The U.N. refugee agency spokesman Adrian Edwards said 3,500 people crossed into Turkey on Tuesday and Wednesday. Edwards told reporters in Geneva there are now almost 65,000 Syrians in nine refugee camps in Turkey, about 40 percent of them new arrivals this month. In Jordan, nearly 2,700 Syrians have entered since Tuesday, swelling the numbers there to over 150,000. Beyond the refugees who have fled to neighboring countries, the U.N.’s humanitarian chief Valerie Amos estimated that as many as 2.5 million people inside Syria need relief assistance. The core of Assad’s military and political power appears to remain in place, but major cracks have emerged in the wider reaches of his regime. They include high-level military and political defections and the ability of rebel guerrillas to stage bombings and abductions in the heart of the capital, Damascus. French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius, who visited Syria’s neighbors Jordan and Lebanon this week, told France’s Europe-1 radio Friday that he was told “there will be new defections on a large scale.” He gave no other details. Fabius also defended France’s refusal to send weapons to the Syrian rebels, despite their appeals for military help. He claimed rebel backers Qatar, Saudi Arabia and others are sending arms to the rebels — although there has been no evidence of sharply enhanced military firepower by the anti-Assad forces. “We Europeans decided on an arms embargo,” he said. “We are not going to contradict our own positions.” In Lebanon, tensions from Syria have spilled over into the volatile patchwork of factions backing the rebels and others firmly behind Assad’s regime, such as the Iranian-backed militant and political group Hezbollah. In the most prominent incident yet, a powerful Shiite Muslim clan claims to have taken more than 20 Syrian nationals and a Turk hostage in retaliation for the seizure of a family member by rebels in Syria this week. The clan said Thursday it was calling off “military operations” and would halt abductions for now. Another captive was taken by unknown gunmen. Turkey’s Foreign Ministry said a Turkish truck driver, Abdel Basit Erslan, was seized as he was driving in the Beirut suburb of Choueifat. It was unclear who was behind the abduction Thursday night. The U.S. and Turkey issued security warnings for Lebanon. On its website, the U.S. Embassy called on its citizens to take extra security precautions, adding that it had received reports of a higher chance of attacks on U.S. nationals. Kidnapping, it added, was another possible threat. The embassy also announced the suspension of the Fulbright and the English Language Fellow student exchange programs. The Turkish Foreign Ministry also advised its citizens to avoid all non-essential travel to Lebanon and urged Turks already in the country to take safety precautions. Arab Gulf countries, including Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the UAE called this week on their citizens to leave Lebanon immediately.

The Afghan security forces have established an eight-point vetting process

(CBS/AP) KABUL, Afghanistan – An Afghan policeman opened fire on NATO forces and Afghan soldiers Monday morning in the fifth apparent attack in a week by Afghan security forces on their international partners. The U.S.-led military coalition says none of its service members were killed. A Taliban spokesman claimed responsibility for the shooting, which took place in the eastern province of Nangarhar, saying the attacker was a police officer who had been in contact with insurgents before the assault. A recent rash of “green-on-blue” attacks, in which Afghan security forces or attackers wearing their uniforms turn their guns on the coalition troops training them, has raised worries about a deterioration of trust between the two sides as well as the quality of the Afghan police and soldiers who will take over full security responsibility for fighting the Taliban when most international troops leave by the end of 2014. It also raises renewed worry that insurgents may be infiltrating the Afghan army and police despite heightened screening. The coalition has recorded 27 so-called green-on-blue attacks so far this year, resulting in 38 deaths – a dramatic rise from previous years. More in Afghanistan: The way forward NATO spokesman Charlie Stadtlander says an initial investigation indicates the attacker was an Afghan police officer, though the man was wearing civilian clothes. He says the shooter escaped. He would not say if any...
