ISIS on the offensive in Iraq

[Sarmatian]

Syrian rebels in Homs strike a deal with the government to leave Homs.

In the next two months the rebels will leave the last areas of Homs they were controlling, bringing the "capital of the revolution" fully under government control for the first time since the conflict erupted. The agreement also specifies that only the police, and not the army may enter that quarter of the city, and an exchange of prisoners will also follow.

This was uploaded last year so I assume that the numbers would be higher now.

Interesting video. At first I was confused about where (in the room) she was speaking from.

It means nothing. Two months is too long a time needed (I'm sure) by both sides for a respite. Remember the Minsk agreements. Such protracted agreements tend to be overlooked and violated at the most propitious moment by the side which deems itself ready. Especially if we know how quickly the situation can take a U-turn.
