Al-Masdar News (sometimes abbreviated AMN) (Arabic: المصدر نيوز) was an online newspaper founded by Leith Abou Fadel.[1] Al-Masdar is Arabic for "the source".[2] Al-Masdar's coverage focuses largely on conflict zones in the Middle East: Syria, Yemen, and Iraq. Al-Masdar has been described as being favorable to President Bashar al-Assad during its coverage of the Syrian civil war. As of 2023, it appears to be inactive.[3]
