Rebels open fire on humanitarian convoy in east Aleppo |
2016-11-05 |
[ALMASDARNEWS] Earlier today, a group of jihadist rebels opened fire on another humanitarian convoy in east Aleppo, wounding one journalist from al-Ikhbariya TV that was traveling with aid workers. According to a local source, a rebel group fired artillery shells towards the convoy, hitting a humanitarian aid vehicle that was traveling through the al-Castillo Highway this afternoon. The Russian military has opened four humanitarian corridors in east Aleppo today; however, the jihadist rebels prohibit any civilians from fleeing the besieged neighborhoods, despite the desperate situation in the area. An estimated 50,000-250,000 people still remain in the besieged east Aleppo neighborhoods, as both the Syrian Armed Forces and jihadist rebels battle for control of these districts. |
