DAMASCUS
Niraj Singh, a member of a UN delegation of observers working in Syria to monitor the cease-fire plan of joint UN and Arab League special envoy on Syria Kofi Annan, on Wednesday said that the number of observers with 4 new people reached 15.
Singh, at a press conference in Damascus, said the observers were regularlymonitoring the situation in the several cities of the country and their number would increase in the near future.
"It is not important where the monitoring will take place. The processing of the programme is the crucial thing," Singh told the reporters.
Two of the new observers are Chinese, and the others Indonesian and Sudanese.
The UN, until today, was having 11 unarmed observers under its Supervision Mission to Syria (UNSMIS). The UN passed a resolution on April 14 for a total of 30, then another resolution last Saturday to increase the number to 300.
