Ο συριακός
στρατός και η Liwa al-Quds έχουν κατακτήσει σημαντικές περιοχές στη συνοικία Al Sakhur μετά την απελευθέρωση της συνοικίας

Σφοδρές
συγκρούσεις είναι σε εξέλιξη μεταξύ των κυβερνητικών στρατευμάτων και των
μαχητών της Jaish Αλ Φατάχ. Ωστόσο, η Jaish Αλ Φατάχ δεν έχει πλέον αρκετές άμυνες στην περιοχή για να κρατηθεί για
πολύ. Έτσι, κατά πάσα πιθανότητα, η περιοχή θα πέσει στα χέρια του συριακού
στρατού κατά τις προσεχείς ώρες. Θα χωριστεί η ανατολική τσέπη του Χαλεπιού
σε δύο ξεχωριστά μέρη.

Προ-κυβερνητικές
πηγές υποστηρίζουν ότι όλη η γειτονιά Al Sakhur βρίσκεται ήδη υπό τον έλεγχο του συριακού στρατού, αλλά αυτό δεν μπορεί να
επιβεβαιωθεί αυτή την ώρα από ουδέτερες πηγές.

Around 250,000 civilians trapped under government siege for months in the east have faced serious food and fuel shortages.
The
Syrian Observatory said nearly 1,700 civilians had fled over the past
24 hours to government-held parts of western Aleppo and another 2,500 to
the Kurdish-controlled northern district of Sheikh Maksoud.

Once a commercial and industrial hub, Aleppo has seen some of the worst fighting in Syria’s five-and-a-half-year war.
The
conflict broke out in 2011 with the brutal repression of
anti-government protests and has since evolved into a complex war
involving different factions and foreign powers.
