BEIRUT, (APP - UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 26th Jul, 2017 ) - Clashes erupted overnight in a rebel-held enclave outside Damascus, which was also hit by government air strikes despite a truce deal, a monitor said on Wednesday.
An internationally brokered ceasefire zone covering parts of Eastern Ghouta went into effect on Saturday.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said the overnight fighting was the first in the enclave since the truce began.
Government troops clashed with fighters of the Faylaq rebel group in the Ain Tarma district, the Britain-based monitoring group said. The fighting subsided by Wednesday morning but government warplanes then carried out strikes in the area.
