"The cessation of hostilities regime is being observed in the majority of provinces. Over the past 24 hours, 11 violations were detected (7 in Latakia, 3 in Aleppo, 1 in Damascus)," the Russian military said in a bulletin.
The total number of Syrian communities to have agreed to a ceasefire with the Syrian government has increased by one, coming to 57, the Russian reconciliation center said.
"A ceasefire agreement was reached with the elders of one community in the Hama governorate. The total number of communities where ceasefire agreements have been reached with elders has come to 57," the center said in a statement published on the Russian Defense Ministry's website.
Preliminary ceasefire agreements were reached with two more communities in the Hama and Damascus provinces, while ceasefire talks were held with commanders of two armed groups in the Hama province, the statement added.
A US-Russia-brokered ceasefire came into being on February 27 across Syria. It was supported by Damascus, as well as by dozens of opposition groups on the ground. Daesh and al-Nusra Front terror groups are not part of the deal.
Six civilians died and four were injured after militants opened fire at a district of the northern Syrian city Aleppo, the Russian reconciliation center at the Hmeimim airbase said.
"The Liva Sultan Murad grouping in al-Sakan al-Shababi district twice opened fire from self-made multiple rocket launchers and machine cannons at the district of Sheikh Maqsoud in the city of Aleppo. The shelling killed 6 and injured 4 civilians," the Russian military said in a bulletin.
The Sultan Murad armed group is an ethnic Turkmen militant group operating in northern Syria. It is not part of the existing ceasefire agreement.
