A seven-day ceasefire declared by the Syrian army expired at midnight, with no immediate announcement of its extension on Monday. The \u201cregime of calm\u201d was announced on Sept. 12 following a ceasefire brokered by the United States and Russia.<\/p>\n
Both rebels and the government have accused each other of numerous violations of the ceasefire, the second this year.<\/p>\n
In its statement announcing the \u201ccalm\u201d, the army had said it would expire at 11:59 p.m. (2059 GMT) on Sunday.
\nThe US and Russia have said that if it holds for seven days, it should be followed by the establishment of a Joint Implementation Center for both countries to coordinate the targeting of ISIS and al-Qaeda-linked militants.
\nDespite largely holding, the cease-fire has been repeatedly violated by both sides, and aid convoys have not reached besieged rebel-held neighborhoods of Aleppo, Syria\u2019s largest city and one-time commercial center, which has been the center of violence in recent months. Aid delivery to Aleppo is part of the US-Russia cease-fire deal.<\/p>\n
