UN envoy to Syria says mission is very difficult
None
The UN's new envoy to Syria says his mission to end the country's civil war is "very, very difficult."
Lakhdar Brahimi's comments on Monday came as activists said Syrian warplanes bombed the northern town of Al-Bab, killing at least 15 people. Brahimi told BBC TV that he is "scared of the weight of the responsibility" and that he is "standing in front of a brick wall." (AP)
