Yez got nuttin' on me, coppers! Nuttin'!
as they try to flee. Russian military also confirms 50,000 civilians leave formerly Jihadi controlled eastern districts of Aleppo by arrangement with Russian military.

The refugee flood from eastern Aleppo is swelling, with the Russian military reporting that 50,000 people fled eastern Aleppo by arrangement with the Russian military over the course of the last 2 days, with 20,000 leaving this Saturday morning.

In addition it seems that more than 1,000 Jihadis gave up and surrendered to the Syrian military this morning.

Here is what the Russian Defence Ministry has said:

Defense ministry organizes mass escape for Aleppo civilians via humanitarian corridor.

"Only in the first half of the day, from eastern districts have escaped more than 20 thousand civilians, and 1,217 gunnies have laid arms."

The Russian Defence Ministry has also issued a pointed warning to the Jihadis who have still not surrendered and to their foreign backers. This includes a stern rebuke of the way Western governments have sought to exploit the humanitarian crisis in Aleppo for propaganda purposes

"We warn snuffies and gunnies from the so-called moderate opposition, and also address their supervisors. Do not try undertaking whatever provocations or even firing on civilians using the humanitarian corridors for the escape.

We address those, who for the recent several months announced readiness to send over to Aleppo their humanitarian assistance: to representatives of the US, Great Britannia, La Belle France, Canada, the European Union
...the successor to the Holy Roman Empire, only without the Hapsburgs and the nifty uniforms and the dancing...
and international organizations. It is time to verify your intentions.

For the time of the humanitarian escape, the Syrian forces have stopped the attack. As the people flee the eastern districts, the Syrian forces will continue the combat operation to push out or kill the bad boys."

Top rebel Turban dies in Aleppo

[AlManar] Media sources disclosed that the top commander of Jaish Al-Fatah terrorists in Aleppo city was killed by Syrian government forces in the Eastern neighborhoods of the city.

The Arabic language al-Hadath news website reported that top Commander of Jaish al-Fatah militants, Abu Walid al-Oqab, was killed by the direct fire of the Syrian pro-government forces in Eastern Aleppo on Monday.

Abu Walid was previously the top commander of al-Shamiyeh Front terrorist group.

The army soldiers also discovered several warehouses of terrorists in newly-freed neighborhoods of Aleppo city. The terrorist groups had hoarded a large volume of food stuff mostly produced in Turkey in these warehouses.

The Arabic language al-Mayadeen’s photographer released several images of hoarded food stuff by the militants, disclosing that the militant groups had collected a large volume of food stuff in their warehouse in anticipation of long-time battle with the Syrian army.

The Al-Mayadeen report went on to say that the militants that were besieged by the army men were preventing distribution of the food stuff among people in Eastern district of Aleppo.

Meantime, large volumes of Turkish food stuff have been discovered in the bases of al-Tawhid terrorist group in Aleppo city.

Syrian soldiers also found a tunnel that the terrorists wanted to detonate below the army soldiers’ positions.

The Russian Peace Coordination Center in Syria announced on Monday that the army troops and popular forces are now in control of over 95 percent of Eastern Aleppo, while other sources said the army has 98 percent of the city under its control.

“Over the past 24 hours, the Syrian armed forces have liberated three districts of the Eastern part of Aleppo. Thus, over 95 percent of the territory of Aleppo is under government control,” the Russian center said in a statement, adding that terrorists are squeezed now in a very small area.

In the meantime, the Arabic language Elam al-Harbi news website disclosed that the army and popular forces have tightened siege on militant in Southeastern Aleppo, cornering terrorists of Jaish al-Fatah in only five sq/km that is only two percent of Aleppo city’s total area.

#1  They can store the prisoners in containers.

Tip: Containers can store about twice as many jihadis if you stand the containers on their end vs. laying them on their belly.
