UN rights council to debate Syria
An emergency debate on Syria is due to be held at the UN Human Rights Council in Geneva on Wednesday, BBC reported.
Member states will consider a resolution condemning the presence of foreign fighters in Qusair, as fighting around the strategic town intensifies.
Foreign powers have been in dispute over the question of arming the warring parties in Syria.
The row has overshadowed a US-Russian effort to arrange a conference to seek an end to the two-year conflict.
The drive is also being undermined by the failure so far of Syrian rebels to agree who should represent them at any such conference.
