BEIRUT (Reuters) - The governor of the Syrian province of Homs said on Tuesday that local authorities had agreed on a deal which would see armed groups leave the last insurgent-held area of Homs city starting next week, state television reported.
Sources told Reuters earlier on Tuesday that Syrian and United Nations officials had been meeting in Homs, a major battleground on Syria's north-south highway, to try to finalise a peace deal following a ceasefire in the Waer district of Homs.
