A provisional document on a truce in Syria agreed upon between Russia and the U.S. stipulates the need to exchange intelligence on terrorist targets in the country, a source close to the negotiations in Geneva told Interfax.

"The document concerns, inter alia, an exchange of intelligence between Russia and the U.S. on terrorist targets in Syria," the source said.

He confirmed that Russian and U.S. experts in Geneva have drawn up not a final but a provisional document on a ceasefire in Syria.

"The dates when the fighting could be stopped are not clear yet. The development of final modalities will be continued," the source said.
