Russia says rebels have violated Syrian ceasefire

The Russian military says U.S.-backed rebels have repeatedly violated a ceasefire in Syria, but that the nearly day-old truce has largely held.

Col. Sergei Kopytsyn said six people have been killed and another 10 have been wounded in Aleppo since the truce went into force at sunset Monday. Separately, he said, two Syrian government troops were killed and another soldier was wounded by opposition shelling of the Castello road on Monday night.
