Members of the UN Security Council will work on a statement on Syria in the coming days, according to US and Russian diplomats after the 15-member body met.
According to foreign media, Russian Ambassador to the UN Vassily Nebenzia said: "The Council, I think, was more or less united on the need to preserve the territorial integrity and unity of Syria, to ensure the protection of civilians, to ensure that humanitarian aid to come to the population in need".
The diplomats also said there had been no discussions about removing the opposition group HTS from the sanctions list.
Throughout Syria's civil war, Russia often offered diplomatic support to ousted Syrian President Assad at the UN Security Council.
The Council has met several times to discuss the country's political and humanitarian issues.
We recall that the regime of President Bashar Al Assad was overthrown after a rapid advance of several days by the opposition rebels. (A2 Televizion)
