Fights resume in Aleppo as ceasefire ends


(MENAFN) The battle for control of the northern Syrian city of Aleppo intensified on Sunday after resurgence in fighting ended a Russian ceasefire.

In detail, there was fierce fighting between insurgents and Syrian government and allied forces along a strategic frontline in southwest Aleppo.

In August rebels briefly broke through this government-held strip of land to try to break a siege on rebel-held eastern Aleppo enacted in July.

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said there was heavy rebel shelling onto the government-controlled Hamdaniya district, part of this battle front.
