The UN Security Council has voted to back efforts by Russia and Turkey to end fighting in Syria and plans for fresh peace talks next month. The resolution, drafted by Russia, also calls for rapid access for humanitarian aid to be delivered across the country. <br/><br/>Turkey and Russia led a ceasefire deal that has mostly held since Thursday. The resolution helps pave the way for talks in Kazakhstan between the Syrian government and opposition, which have the backing of Russia, Iran and Turkey. The new ceasefire deal applies across Syria but excludes the Islamic State terrorists and the Kurdish YPG militia.
