"A fragile ceasefire between Syria's government and the Kurdish-led SDF has been extended by 15 days, easing tensions in the country's northeast and buying more time to implement a deal with Damascus."
"The truce is intended to support US efforts to transfer thousands of ISIL prisoners out of Syria, as Al Jazeera's Ayman Oghanna reports from Damascus."
A fragile ceasefire between Syria's government and the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces has been extended by 15 days, reducing immediate risk of clashes across the country's northeast and providing additional time to implement the agreement with Damascus. The temporary truce creates space for coordination and logistical planning required to move detainees and adjust local security arrangements. The pause is intended to facilitate US-backed efforts to transfer thousands of ISIL prisoners out of Syria, lowering pressure on detention facilities and aiming to prevent security incidents during prisoner movements. The arrangement's durability depends on successful implementation and local compliance.
