The GPC official also said the security committee has put conditions for the ceasefire and they are conditions applied in the entire country and the JMP should talk to the elements of destruction to commit to them if it wants to stop the military operations as it says.

In his statements to Al-Jazeera Satellite TV Channel, al-Shamy said there are displaced persons who have been there more than one year since e the halt of the military hostilities last year. The elements of destruction had, after the withdrawal of the armed forces from mountains, attacked the citizens who did not go wit their intentions in the war and expelled them from their houses and the state was compelled to set camps for them in the area of Malahidh and others more than one year.
