Syria Government Resigns

The Syrian government resigned Tuesday amid an unusual wave of unrest that has roiled the nation, State TV reported.

A new government should be named within hours, said Reem Haddad, a spokeswoman for the Syrian Information Ministry.

Meanwhile, the President is expected to address the nation in a speech before the People’s Assembly at 11 a.m. (5 a.m. EST) Wednesday, State TV said.
