Lattakia, SANA – The number of breaches of the cessation of hostilities agreement in Syria has reached 1126 since the agreement came into effect on February 27th, after 10 new breaches were observed over the past 24 hours.

The Hmeimim-based Russian Coordination Center monitoring the agreement said in a statement that terrorists of the so-called “Jaish al-Islam” breached the agreement four times in Damascus countryside, while the other breaches were committed by terrorists of the so-called “Ahrar al-Sham” and the “Free Army” in Lattakia countryside.

The center asserted that 26 new villages joined the cessation of hostilities agreement, raising the total number of towns and areas that are part of the agreement to 530, according to the center.
