Syrian President Bashar al-Assad ordered Syrian army generals in a secret meeting to bomb Israel and Egypt if he is killed, Israeli online newspaper Inyan Merkazi has reported, according to the Algemeiner, a New York-based weekly.

Al-Assad allegedly told top generals to hit the two countries in the event he is killed by missiles belonging to rebel forces or murdered in a fashion similar to Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi.

Meanwhile, Saudi daily Al-Watan recently claimed that al-Assad and his family have been staying on a warship provided by Russia in the Mediterranean.
