Unrest Shakes Aleppo as Rebels Say Ceasefire Plan 'Dead End'
[AnNahar] Heavy festivities and a regime barrel kaboom shook the Syrian city of Aleppo Thursday after rebels tried to seize an intelligence headquarters in a forceful rejection of U.N. ceasefire efforts.The fresh violence came during a visit to Aleppo by a delegation sent by U.N. envoy Staffan de Mistura, who is seeking to "freeze" fighting in the devastated northern city. Wednesday's attack on the air force intelligence offices, which left at least 20 members of regime security forces and 14 rebels dead, was the worst unrest in Aleppo since the opposition rejected the peace plan on Sunday.
