UN Security Council diplomats are discussing a draft resolution that would endorse the deal on cessation of hostilities in Syria, diplomats said Wednesday, according to AFP.

Russia and the United States, which negotiated the ceasefire deal, are working on a text that could be adopted on Friday, a council diplomat said.

"I think there will be a resolution that we will agree then to welcome the cessation of hostilities negotiated by the US and Russia," he said.
