BEIRUT (Sputnik) – The Syrian leadership will consider any group not observing the ceasefire to be terrorists, Al Mayadeen television reported Wednesday citing an official source in the Syrian Foreign Ministry.
“Armed groups refuting the decision on a ceasefire and conducting military actions will be considered terrorists,” the broadcaster reported a Syrian Foreign Ministry official as saying.
The deal between Russia and the United States was approved by the International Syria Support Group (ISSG). During its meeting on February 12, the ISSG agreed a final communique calling for swift humanitarian access to all besieged areas in Syria, and set a one-week deadline for measures to be implemented toward the cessation of hostilities in the country.
