The head of the suspended
United Nations' observer mission to Syria has told the Security Council his
monitors were repeatedly targeted by hostile crowds, but that the mission is
morally obliged to stay in the country. Major General Robert Mood told the 15-nation
security council on Tuesday that his 300-strong unarmed observer force was
targeted with gunfire at least 10 times last week and nine vehicles were
damaged, according to a UN diplomat who attended the closed- door breifing. Al
Jazeera's Scott Heidler reports.
