دمشق تعلن التزاما مشروطا بالهدنة ابتداء من صباح الغد و حتى الإثنين
Damascus declares to observe the conditional armistice that should begin tomorrow morning (*) and last until Monday.
(*) This news was released on Thursday October 25 by Al-Jazeera TV, Arabic channel. The armistice should therefore begin today October 26, 2012. Whether that is realistic or not depends on the firm will of both sides and their ability to reduce manifold military activity in Syria as shown in the below maps:
