Jordan supports Syria in every measure it takes to protect its security and rejects any foreign meddling and efforts to push its neighbour towards chaos, Jordan's foreign ministry said on Friday in a statement.

Syrian security forces have been battling for two days to crush a nascent insurgency by fighters from Bashar al-Assad's Alawite sect in western Syria, with scores reported killed as the Islamist-led government faced the biggest challenge yet to its authority.
