Over 1,500 civilians managed to leave eastern Aleppo neighborhoods besieged by militants. Sputnik news agency reports referring to the local media. “The army units secured departure route for 1500 people from Aleppo city’s eastern parts,” a field commander told Syria’s state-run SANA agency. He added that families were located in makeshift centers, where they received all necessary service.
Earlier in the day, a source in Aleppo Governorate told the agency that a number of families managed to leave eastern parts of Aleppo using the Syrian army’s advance in the Masaken Hanano neighborhood.
The situation in Aleppo has been seriously deteriorating over the recent months. Thousands of citizens are trapped in the terrorist-besieged eastern parts of Aleppo with no access to food or water.
