GENEVA， Aug. 11 (Xinhua) -- As fighting continues to rage in war-torn Syria， the UN Special Envoy for Syria Staffan De Mistura on Thursday warned that militarization of the ongoing conflict is untenable if a peaceful solution is to be reached between factions at war.
"No sustainable military solution is possible in Aleppo or anywhere else in Syria，" De Mistura said after a weekly humanitarian taskforce meeting here.
This statement comes amid ongoing clashes between factions vying to control the strategically and symbolically important Aleppo， once Syria's largest city.
Residents trapped in both eastern and western parts of the war-ravaged city， northern Syria， have been particularly hard-hit by food and medical shortages. The lack of running water and electricity has further compounded the dire situation on the ground.
Aid groups have been unable to carry out critical relief operations because of intensified fighting. A Russian pledge to implement a daily three-hour ceasefire to allow humanitarian aid to access the city's desperate people was deemed insufficient by the UN.
"First of all， we the UN were not consulted. Secondly， three hours is not enough，" De Mistura said， adding that the Russians do seem open to the idea of discussing further plans to see if the initiative can be improved upon.
The UN has been calling for a 48-hour truce to be set up to cater to the pressing needs of the two million people living in Aleppo.
Despite protracted violence， the envoy iterated his intention to resume Syrian peace talks towards the end of August seeking to broker a political end to the five-year conflict.
The UN-mediated negotiations have been on hold since April this year.
NEW YORK hydro flask 16 oz coffee red sale , Sept. 5 (Xinhua) -- Seven-time Grand Slam champion Venus Williams became the oldest semifinalist in US Open history at age 37 with a 6-3, 3-6, 7-6(2) thriller win over Petra Kvitova of the Czech Republic on Tuesday.
Coming up next for the US ninth seed will be the clash against her 83rd-ranked compatriot Sloane Stephens, who edged past Latvian 16th seed Anastasija Sevastova 6-3, 3-6 hydro flask 16 oz coffee blue sale , 7-6(4).
Williams, who improved to 2-4 all-time against the Czech 13th seed, will return to the world top five for the first time since January 2011. All six of the matches between Williams and Kvitova have gone to a third set.
"I'm so fortunate to have won that match. It came down to the wire," Williams said. "I try to tell myself enjoy the competition, enjoy the battle and I think I was able to do that."
Williams gave up the first break of serve trailing at 3-1 with three double faults hydro flask 16 oz coffee yellow sale , but was able to reel off five straight games as Kvitova racked up too many errors.
A loose Williams game early in the second offered Kvitova the lifeline she needed and she clawed back to take the second set.
Two brilliant cross-court backhands gave Kvitova an early break in the third but Williams recovered from 3-1 down, leveling it when the Czech double-faulted.
It came down to a tiebreak and a brilliant return at 1-1 was enough to give Williams the momentum. Roared on by the New York crowd, the 2000 and 2001 champion powered to 6-1 and never looked back.
Stephens' comeback from injury will keep going all the way to the semifinals.
"When I started my comeback at Wimbledon, I could have never even dreamed of something like this happening, having these results hydro flask 16 oz coffee pink sale ," Stephens said after the match.
She's No. 83 now with 13 wins in her last 15 matches, becoming just the seventh player outside the top 50 to reach the US Open women's semifinals. Her only previous Grand Slam semi was at the Australian Open four years ago.
In men's side, Spanish 12th seed Pablo Carreno Busta, who has not dropped a set, cruised into his first Grand Slam semifinal by defeating Argentine 29th seed Diego Schartzman 6-4 hydro flask 20 oz coffee pink sale , 6-4, 6-2.
"Incredible," Carreno Busta said. "It's something that I always dreamed about but something I never thought was going to arrive here. It's a great feeling."
Elsewhere, Kevin Anderson of South Africa defeated Sam Querrey of the United States 7-6(5), 6-7(9) hydro flask 20 oz coffee black sale , 6-3, 7-6(7) to also make semifinals.
