The Obama administration is reconsidering military and diplomatic options on the Syrian conflict, including the creation of a Special Forces-led mission to train and equip rebel fighters and the establishment of a limited no-fly zone. A senior official said the administration is opposed to the provision of MANPADs to the Syrian rebels. US officials are seeking to swap five Taliban commanders currently held at Guantanamo for US soldier Bowe Bergdahl, who is thought to be a captive of the Haqqani Network in Pakistan.
