"We deplore the death of civilians - young children and teenagers - in Majdal Shams. Civilians must be protected at all times.
We urge the parties to exercise maximum restraint and to put a stop to the ongoing intensified exchanges of fire. It could ignite a wider conflagration that would engulf the entire region in a catastrophe beyond belief.
