The center said that the cessation of hostilities agreement is holding in most Syrian areas, adding that the towns which have joined the agreement are now 410, while the number of armed groups which announced commitment to the agreement remains 69.

It pointed out that Jabhat al-Nusra terrorists continue attempts to foil the cessation of hostilities agreement, as they targeted in the past 24 hours with rocket and mortar shells the neighborhoods of al-Lairamoun, al-Ramousa, al-Ansari and al-Castello Commercial Center in Aleppo as well as 6 towns in Damascus countryside and a town in Sweida.

The cessation of hostilities agreement is not applicable to ISIS, Jabhat al-Nusra or other groups designated internationally as terrorist organizations.
