A draft UN Security Council resolution has outlined plans to send monitors to Syria to oversee compliance with a UN and Arab League-backed peace plan.  The draft, prepared by the US, is expected to be voted on at the Security Council on Friday, with a monitoring team arriving by early next week.  A ceasefire at the core of the peace plan is largely holding.  But at least three people were reportedly killed on Friday, as large protests were held in several places.
