ceasefire

The United Nations Special Envoy said aid delivery to besieged areas should soon be possible.
The pause in fighting is intended to allow aid to reach besieged areas.
Russia said on Thursday it would support a 48-hour ceasefire in Aleppo, a move the U.N. Syria envoy said would allow aid to reach besieged areas soon.
President Vladimir Putin urged the warring sides to immediately observe the 1994 ceasefire.
"In Damascus, I know who has the guns. In America, everybody has a gun," he says.
Despite world powers' recent agreement to a "cessation of hostilities," Syrian army offensives continue.
The Syrian president also said he would retake the whole country, and that that could take a long time.
Friday's agreement did nothing to halt Russian bombing for at least another week, allowing government forces to press on with their offensive.
The assault around Aleppo, which aid workers have said could soon fall to government forces, helped to torpedo Syrian peace talks in Geneva this week.
The resolution makes no mention of the future role of Syrian President Bashar Assad.
