UN plans to send observers to Syria

A draft UN resolution has outlined plans to send an advance mission of 20 to 30 unarmed observers to Syria monitor compliance with a new peace plan, possibly by early next week, BBC News reported.

The draft was prepared by the US and is expected to be voted on at the Security Council on Friday.

The observers would monitor the ceasefire and check the Syrian army was withdrawing from population centers in accordance with the peace plan.

Syria has said it will accept UN monitors.

The first day of the ceasefire passed without major incident, but activists said a number of people had been killed and the government said a bomb attack had killed one soldier.
