Nee, dat staat er niet. Ze zijn bereid mee te werken aan een wapenstilstand, ze vragen er niet om.

Het gaat trouwens om de luchtaanvallen, en aangezien de rebellen geen luchtaanvallen uitvoeren heeft het leger er ook geen belang bij.

The Syrian information minister says European leaders are starting to feel the results of their political stance against the Arab country following the threats posed by terrorists on the European continent.

“Europeans have begun feeling the inconvenience of their political stance, based on their actions against the Syrian state,” Omran Zoubi said on Tuesday.

This is not because of the recognition of their erroneous acts, but because of “a fear for their own safety” following the January terrorist attack against French magazine Charlie Hebdo, Zoubi said.

Damascus has already warned that “such a political approach to Syria will bear consequences” like the recent terror attack in France, he added.

The Syrian official also reacted to European sanctions imposed against Syria, describing them as ineffective.

“European leaders thought that the Syrian government would fall apart, that the political foundations of the government would fall,” Zoubi said, adding that “today, they have realized that things are not as they thought.”

Syria has been grappling with a deadly crisis since March 2011. The violence fueled by Takfiri groups has so far claimed the lives of an estimated 210,000 people, according to reports.

The European Union and the US have imposed several sanctions against Syria since 2011.Washington and some of its allies in the Middle East have also been arming and funding militants to fight against the government of President Bashar al-Assad.

Aleppo battles kill scores on both sides: Syria monitor

(Reuters) - Battles in and around the Syrian city of Aleppo have killed at least 70 pro-government fighters and more than 80 insurgents after the army started an offensive there, a monitoring group said on Wednesday.

Aleppo is at the forefront of clashes between government forces and a range of insurgents, including Islamist brigades, al Qaeda's Syria wing Nusra Front and Western-backed units. The United Nations is seeking a ceasefire there to allow urgent aid access.

The Syrian army, backed by allied militia, had captured areas north of Aleppo on Tuesday in what the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said was an attempt to cut off insurgent supply lines. Battles also rages inside several districts of the city.

The Observatory's Rami Abdulrahman said casualties on the government side could be higher because 25 of its combatants were unaccounted for. Sixty-six Syrian insurgents from various groups were killed in the fighting, as well as at least 20 from Nusra Front, he said.

On Tuesday the United Nations Syria envoy said the government was willing to suspend its aerial bombardment and artillery shelling of Aleppo for six weeks so that a local ceasefire plan could be tested.

The army has been trying to close a major insurgent supply route leading north from Aleppo towards the Turkey border, according to the Observatory. Fighting on Tuesday had blocked the road.

On early Wednesday morning, Hezbollah continued their offensive in the Al-Quneitra Governorate, targeting the strategic Syria Tel Hill (Tal Syria Tel) in the village of Mosahra.

After fierce clashes with the Al-Qaeda linked “Al-Nusra Front” (Jabhat Al-Nusra), Hezbollah was able to assert their control over the hill overlooking the northern part of Mosahra around 7:40 A.M. Damascus Time.

Intense fighting is still ongoing in northern Mosahra; however, the Syrian Arab Army’s 9th Armored Division has joined the fight, attacking the Al-Nusra Front from the western perimeter of the village.

If Hezbollah and the 9th Division are successful in capturing this imperative village in the Al-Quneitra Governorate, they will have cutoff a major supply route that the militants utilize to keep their entrenched fighters in the battle.
