A ceasefire in southwest Syria, declared by the US and Russia in their first “de-escalation” deal in the conflict, began without violence on Sunday.
The arrangement, which also includes Jordan, was announced as Donald Trump met Russian President Vladimir Putin at the G20 summit in Germany on Friday.
While sceptical of the deal and assuring that they were not part of it, the Southern Front rebel bloc said that the ceasefire was holding with “a cautious calm” continued into the evening.
