Syria and Kurd-led SDF agree to ceasefire after fighting.

The Syrian government has reached a ceasefire agreement with the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces, requiring SDF forces to withdraw from areas west of the Euphrates River and integrate into the Syrian military. The deal, announced by President Ahmed al-Sharaa, will see state institutions take over SDF-controlled governorates and facilities, with the SDF proposing leaders for key positions within the government. The agreement follows recent clashes between the Syrian army and the SDF in northeastern Syria, culminating in the Syrian military gaining control of strategic posts, oilfields, and territory previously held by the SDF.
