The shaky ceasefire in Syria seems to have been violated, with reports of fresh shelling and airstrikes coming out of the war-torn country. A Kurdish official says Turkish troops have once again fired artillery shells into the cities of Tal Abyad and Uslub where Kurdish fighters are resisting Takfiri terrorists. According to Rodi Osman, the attack is in violation of Syria’s sovereignty and the UN resolution on truce. Also, the so-called Syrian Observatory for Human Rights says warplanes have pounded six towns in the northern Aleppo province. The identity of the jets isn’t clear. The attacks come just a day after an agreement on the cessation of hostilities took effect.

Anti-Syria groups also claim the government forces breached the ceasefire over a dozen times.
