Turkey and Russia arrange a ceasefire between Syrian regime forces and the opposition in Idlib, Russian news agencies are reporting
Syria has been locked in a vicious civil war since early 2011 when the Assad regime cracked down on pro-democracy protests with unexpected ferocity.
The Russian military said the ceasefire applied to the so-called Idlib de-escalation zone and had led to a significant reduction in violence on Wednesday, Russian news agencies said.Aerial strikes on Monday killed at least 25 people, mostly civilians, in northwestern Syria in the sixth week of a Russian-led military offensive that has so far killed hundreds of civilians, according to residents and civil rescuers.
Tens of thousands of people have fled their homes, many of them sheltering at the Turkish border from air strikes that have killed scores of people. Idlib is the last de-escalation zone in Syria - in which acts of aggression are prohibited - agreed among Turkey, Russia and Iran during the Astana peace talks in Kazakhstan.
