Arab League chief Nabil al-Arabi on Wednesday denied media reports that the pan-Arab organization plans to impose a no-fly zone in Syria, dpa reported.
"I am surprised about such inaccurate reports at a time when efforts and contacts are still under way to remove the obstacles to allowing Arab monitors into Syria and ensure the success of providing an Arab solution (to the Syrian crisis)," he told reporters in Cairo.
Al-Arabi, however, expressed concerns over an increase in violence in Syria in the past few days.
