Israel and Syria have agreed to a cease-fire proposal “embraced” by Turkey, Jordan, and other neighboring countries, U.S. Ambassador to Turkey Tom Barrack said on Friday.
Barrack said the leaders of both countries have agreed to a cease-fire of hostilities, with the support of the United States, which has acted as the mediator.
