Syrian Military Has Formally Declared The End Of The Ceasefire



VOA: Syrian Military Declares US-Russian Negotiated Cease-Fire Over

Syria's military command has declared the U.S.-Russian negotiated cease-fire over, blaming the country's rebel groups for undermining the agreement.

The Syrian military says “armed terrorist groups” repeatedly violated the cease-fire that came into effect last week and used it to mobilize and arm, while attacking government-held areas. It said the rebels wasted a "real chance'' to stop the bloodshed and did not indicate whether the truce would be reinstated.
