he Syrian President Bashar al-Assad has said the government needs more time to win the battle against terrorists. In an interview with pro-government al-Dunya TV, Mr Assad also dismissed as unrealistic the idea of creating humanitarian buffer zones within Syria. He said the Syrian government was fighting a battle both regionally and internationally. Mr Assad said the situation on the ground is better now, but the conclusion is not there yet. President also addressed the proposal by Turkish Foreign Minister to set up a United Nations-sanctioned buffer zone inside Syria to shelter refugees and help distribute humanitarian aid.

Meanwhile, opposition activists say the army has launched offensives across the country to regain control of rebel-held areas. Heavy shelling was reported on Tuesday in the capital, Damascus, Aleppo, and the north-western province of Idlib.
