A new deconfliction zone will be established in Syria’s southern Damascus, as the agreement has been reached with militants there, a source at the ongoing talks on Syria in Astana told Sputnik.
Another source has explained that previously there had been a request to Russia from the military groups in southern Damascus to include the southern Damascus area in the zones of de-escalation or deconfliction.
The unstable situation in Jobar, a municipality of Damascus, and Baet Jinn, a town in southern Syria, southwest of Damascus, was among the issues raised by the opposition. Media reports suggested the possibility of the establishment of a new zone there.
