A halt of military operations between Hezbollah and the Syrian army on one side and the terrorist groups on the another came into force in the Syrian cities of Foua and Kefraya in rural Idleb, and in the cities of Madaya and Zabadani in Damascus countryside, sources told Al-Manar TV.

The decision was to be implemented starting from 12:00 pm on Sunday.

The halt of operation came after dozens of terrorist gunmen killed, including a senior al-Qaeda leader, when the Syrian Popular Committees fought off an attack by militants in the vicinity of Foua and Kefraya towns, in addition to cracking down on gunmen in some parts of Zabadani city.
