CAIRO - Syrian foreign ministry spokesman Jihad Makdissi has defected from President Bashar Assad's government and has left the country, a regional diplomatic source said on Monday.

Lebanon's al-Manar Television said earlier that Makdissi had been sacked for making statements which did not reflect official positions.e left
