Syrian government and SDF reach four-day ceasefire agreement

The Kurdish-led SDF has accepted a four-day ceasefire with the Syrian government but reports continued attacks by government-allied forces despite the agreement, including artillery shelling and drone attacks on various locations. The SDF has agreed to political paths and dialogue, while the Syrian government is rapidly advancing, seizing territory previously held by the SDF. The US has shifted its focus to supporting the Syrian government in fighting ISIL, formerly the SDF’s role, as the situation in northeastern Syria remains tense with ongoing clashes despite the ceasefire.
