Syrian Defense Minister Marhaf Abu Qasra announced that the Syrian government and the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) have agreed to cease all hostilities across the country. He said he met with SDF Commander-in-Chief Mazlum Abdi in Damascus on Tuesday, where both sides agreed to immediately implement a ceasefire in all regions where their forces are deployed, particularly in northern and northeastern Syria.
The announcement comes after violent clashes broke out last night between Syrian security forces and SDF units in Aleppo’s Sheikh Maqsud and Ashrafiya neighborhoods, which left two people dead and dozens injured. The fighting had raised fears of wider escalation before the ceasefire was reached.
