Syria conflict resolution comes to a halt

DAMASCUS, Syria

Annan was seeking an immediate cease-fire to allow for humanitarian aid and the start of a dialogue between all parties on a political solution. Syrian President Bashar Assad told Annan that a political solution is impossible as long as terrorist groups threaten Syria.

His regime blames the uprising on armed groups acting out a foreign conspiracy. While opposition leaders the thousands killed by government forces were protesting peacefully.

Meanwhile, activists say Syrian forces targeted other Homs neighborhoods Sunday with shells and rocket-propelled grenades.
