		</div><p>A ceasefire has been agreed between government forces and rebel factions in a key rebel-held Damascus suburb, Syrian state TV and opposition activists said.</p>
<p>Under the terms of the agreement, 700 gunmen will be allowed safe passage out of Daraya to the northern province of Idlib, state media said.</p>
<p>Around 4,000 women and children will be taken to shelters outside the town.</p>
<p>Daraya has been besieged and blockaded by government forces for nearly four years, with only minimal food deliveries allowed to reach the district.</p>
<p>The town is south-west of Damascus and has been pummelled by government air strikes, barrel bombs and fighting over the years.</p>
<p>The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights also reported the agreement, under which rebels will give up all medium and heavy weaponry.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, activists in Aleppo said at least 13 people, mostly children, were killed when suspected government helicopters dropped barrel bombs into a crowded residential area.</p>
<p>Osama Abo Elezz, a doctor from the rebel-held part of Aleppo, said the bombs fell in the city&#8217;s Bab al-Nayreb district, hitting more than one building.</p>
<p>He said the unguided explosives killed 10 children, including a two-month-old baby and a three-year-old girl.</p>
<p>Activist group the Aleppo Media Centre said at least 13 were killed.</p>
<p>Dr Abo Elezz said rescue teams were still working to pull survivors from under the rubble.</p>
<p>The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights put the death toll at 15, including 11 children, and four women.</p>
