Syria’s defence ministry and Kurdish-led forces ordered their troops to cease fire on Monday after clashes between the two sides in the northern city of Aleppo killed at least three people.
State news agency SANA cited the defence ministry as saying that the Syrian army’s general staff had issued “an order to stop targeting the sources of fire”.
The US-backed Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces meanwhile said they had “issued directives to our forces to cease responding to attacks”.
