Three Syrian opposition factions signed an Egyptian-brokered agreement on Thursday to cease fire, according to a statement by the Egyptian Intelligence.
Jaish Al Islam, Jaish al Ababil and Aknaf Bait al Maqdis, which are stationed in southern Damascus, signed the Russian-guaranteed ceasefire agreement at the headquarters of the Egyptian Intelligence, the statement said.
The agreement comes into force today at 12: p.m. (Cairo Local Time).
Under the agreement, the factions agreed to open crossings in southern Damascus to let in humanitarian aid.
Other factions operating in the south of the capital are welcomed to join the agreement, the statement said.
