FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda Video footage showed the observers walking through rubble-strewn streets, accompanied by protesters chanting, “the people want the overthrow of the president”.
Opposition supporters have responded derisively to the mission, which they accuse of playing into the regime’s hands by preventing a more robust international response. Their outrage grew after the observers chose to remain in their hotels on Friday while protesters gathering for their weekly rallies allegedly came under fire from the security forces.
The observer mission is meant to verify the implementation of a ceasefire brokered earlier this month by Kofi Annan, the UN and Arab League special envoy to Syria.
Nasser al-Kidwa, Mr Annan’s Palestinian deputy, said neither side had abided by the truce, although he appeared to apportion greater blame to the government.
“We don’t see much of a ceasefire,” he told France 24 Television. “There are many reasons to be worried by the lack of implementation, at least lack of full implementation by [the] Syrian government and perhaps some other parties as well.”
Since the ceasefire has come into force, Mr Assad’s forces have been accused of shelling Homs and other opposition strongholds. His government has blamed the rebels for at least three bombings in the past fortnight, one of which killed 10 soldiers according to state television.
A loud blast was heard at an airbase in Damascus yesterday but no details were released.
