The armed opposition, instead, was highly critical of the proposal, saying it lacks legitimacy. It said some maps of the "de-escalation zones" that were released are not accurate and will not be accepted because the armed opposition did not negotiate them. The government-controlled Syrian Central Military Media reported there was "relative clam" Saturday morning in the "de-escalation zones" nine hours after the deal went into effect. The Pentagon said the de-escalation agreement would not affect the U.S.-led air campaign against IS. An official with Russia's military general staff said other countries may eventually have a role in enforcing the de-escalation areas.
