DAMASCUS, July 25 (Xinhua) -- The first relief aid shipment entered the Eastern Ghouta area in east of Damascus on Tuesday, as part of a U.S.-Russian agreement, activists said.

Several truck loaded with food and medical supplies reached Eastern Ghouta through the Wafidee Camp crossing in northern Damascus.

The aid delivery is part of the de-escalation deal reached between the U.S. and Russia, which started this month in Eastern Ghouta.

Also, Russia has deployed military police forces at the separation line between the rebels and the Syrian army to observe the implementation of the ceasefire. Enditem
