Residents in the embattled Syrian city of Aleppo are enjoying a rare moment of peace, with the latest ceasefire holding for another day.  

"The situation without war planes is making children happy and they are having a good time. God willing, the situation will remain this way," a resident said.

Thanks to the U.S.-Russia-brokered ceasefire, the city has come tentatively back to life.

It's the second attempt this year to halt the war. And no one knows how long it will last.

But for now, residents and rebels alike are revelling in the peace. 

The city is also awaiting much needed aid. It's expected to be delivered tomorrow... as long as the ceasefire can hold.
