Syrian army announces ceasefire covering entire country for 72 hours
07.07.2016 - 11:11
Damascus has avoided calling it a ceasefire, as previous truces have broken down, and have been negotiated. It is a ceasefire in all but name, the Syrian military’s declaration of a 72-hour “regime of calm”, coinciding with the end of Ramadan, that began at one o’clock on Wednesday morning, and will end at midnight on Friday.
