US Secretary of State John Kerry stated Monday that the US and Russia have agreed to set up a process to ensure the US-led coalition and Russian military operations in Syria targeting Daesh and the Nusra Front.

WASHINGTON (Sputnik)�� The United States and Russia have agreed on�establishing a process to�ensure that the US-led coalition and Russian military operations in�Syria target Daesh and the Nusra Front, US Secretary of�State John Kerry announced on�Monday.

Kerry comments came after�his conversations with�Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov in�which they agreed while there have been some reported violations on�both sides, but�they "do not want to�litigate this in�a public fashion," but�work to�eliminate them by�setting up�a process.
"There is a team of�people on�the ground in�Geneva, and a team of�people in�Amman, Jordan. They are in�touch with�each other and with�people in�Syria. And we are going to�track down�each alleged violation and work even more now to�put in�place a construct which will help us to�be able to�guarantee that missions are indeed missions against�Nusra or missions against�Daesh," Kerry stated.


The cessation of�hostilities came into�effect at�midnight on�February 27 Damascus time, after�the United States and Russia reached an agreement earlier in�February on�a ceasefire between�the Syrian government and opposition groups in�order to�help end the country�s civil war.

Following the implementation of�the ceasefire, reports soon emerged accusing Russia and Syria of�carrying out�airstrikes against�areas controlled by�the allegedly moderate Syrian opposition included in�the ceasefire deal, accusations that Moscow has denied.

According to�the United Nations, the ongoing five-year civil war in�Syria has resulted in�the death of�more than�a quarter million Syrians with�more than�ten million who are internally displaced or have fled the country as�refugees.
