(15 Apr 2016) A Syrian government delegation arrived in Geneva on Friday to join a new round of U.N.-mediated peace talks underway with an umbrella opposition group that seeks to find a resolution to the country's five-year civil war.
The arrival of the Damascus team, led by Syria's U.N. Ambassador Bashar Ja'afari, comes amid escalating fighting between government forces and insurgents in northern Aleppo province that has killed 34 fighters on both sides over the past 24 hours.
Ja'afari met with the U.N's Special Envoy to Syria, Staffan de Mistura, who has said he hopes for a substantive round of "proximity talks" on a transitional government to end the war.
