The Syrian army said it will apply a 48-hour truce in the city of Aleppo, in the north of the country, after days of intense fighting with rebel forces.
The truce comes into effect at 1 a.m. local time on Thursday, according to the Syrian state news wire SANA.
Earlier on Wednesday, the U.S. said it was working with Russia to restore a cessation of hostilities in Aleppo, according to the State Department.
State Department deputy spokesman Mark Toner said in a statement that since this morning, there's been an "overall decrease in violence" despite "reports of continued fighting in some locations."
