Secretary of State Rex Tillerson confirmed that the United States and Russia had agreed to a ceasefire in southwestern Syria, npr.org reports.
Speaking to the press after the meeting between President Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin Tillerson said the agreement was set to take effect on Sunday.
Jordan and Israel are also part of the deal, the Associated Press reports, quoting an unnamed US official.
The Secretary of State told reporters that although Washington and Moscow have had conflicting views on Syria in the past, that Russia has "an interest in seeing the Mideast nation become a stable place."
According to the AP, the deal is separate from "de-escalation zones" that were part of an agreement among Russia, Turkey and Iran earlier this year that did not include the United States.
