Assad officials offer Aleppo rebels football match


(MENAFN) The Syrian government has dropped leaflets inviting rebels in the war-torn city of Aleppo to a "friendly" football match, as a goodwill gesture.

In detail, messages sent to phones and posted on social media also said the government's enemies were welcome to attend the game on Thursday at the Hamdania Stadium.

Rebels in the besieged east of the city were offered safe passage.

Government forces have been bombarding eastern Aleppo for weeks and recently rolled back a rebel offensive.
