Russia calls for ceasefire in Syria before peacekeeping can start

The Sudanese general who led the mission, and was accused by opposition
activists of bias towards the regime, resigned on Sunday.

The announcement marks an urgent effort to end the bloodshed after Russia and China
used their UN Security Council veto to block an Arab-drafted and
Western-backed plan to have Mr Assad replaced by a transitional government.

As the Arab leaders met, rockets continued to fall on the Syrian opposition
stronghold of Homs. Amateur video footage purportedly shows explosions and
huge damage in Homs. Activists reported more than 500 people have died there
since Feb 4.
