MOSCOW (Sputnik) — Earlier in the day, a source in the ceasefire task force told Sputnik that Russia and the United States have agreed to introduce state of cessation of hostilities in northern Latakia province and suburbs of Damascus in Syria from midnight on April 30.
“[We call] to putting an end to those avoiding punishment from committing crimes of war by placing clear sanctions on those [responsible] for any type of violation in the cessation of hostilities regime; forward material on the situation in Syria to the International Criminal Court,” HNC coordinator Riyad Hijab said in a letter published by the committee’s press service.
In February, Russia and the United States reached an agreement on a ceasefire in Syria, which took effect the same month.
