announced the envoy of the United Nations for Syria , Staffan de Mistura, said Friday that the rest of the strongholds of the "Daesh" in Syria will fall probably by next October end , which should prompt the international community to press for free and fair elections. "What we are seeing is the beginning of the end of this war ... What we need is to ensure that it is also the beginning of peace,

" de Mistura said in an interview with the BBC .

Three places were still far from being stabilized: Raqqa, Deir al-Zour and Idlib.

If the international community helps the opposition and the government pressure the government to accept genuine negotiations, a year can be held that is truly credible, "de Mistura said.

Deir al-Zour has been under siege from Da'as for years, forcing the United Nations to launch an unprecedented costly campaign to airlift aid to the population.

"The Syrian government and the Russians are likely to release it between now and the end of this month and possibly by early October," de Mistura said.

He said the United States and Syria's "democratic forces" will probably be relaxed by the end of October.
