Significance
The Battle of Rastan was fought between Syrian government forces and the Free Syrian Army in the city of Rastan on 14 May 2012. Its primary significance lies in the timing: the engagement occurred during a UN-brokered ceasefire, demonstrating that the truce had failed to halt active military operations on the ground. Fighting of this kind during a declared cessation of hostilities underscored the fragility of international mediation efforts in the Syrian conflict at that stage of the revolution.
