Syrian government troops have pressed into rebel-held areas of the besieged city of Aleppo, as a two week-long offensive there grinds forward, appearing to push rebel defenders closer to defeat.
The government gains bring the Assad regime another step closer to re-taking Aleppo, Syria’s second largest city, held by rebels since 2012.
The fall of Aleppo would be a major victory for Assad and his ally Russia, whose intervention in September last year has pulled the Syrian president's regime back from the brink of collapse. Since November, Russia has intensified its bombing campaign across Syria, as the government has appeared increasingly emboldened.
1- Efforts by the U.S. to broker ceasefires for Aleppo fell apart ..............
2- The Assad regime appear determined to retake the city, despite protests from Western countries that they are committing war crimes by indiscriminately bombing civilians and targeting hospitals.
3- The Obama administration has warned Russia no military victory is possible in Syria, but Assad has repeatedly said he will take back all areas of the country.
Let us keep the Country as one piece. Let us not support any opposition. We have done that for sometime and the outcome is full destruction of a country, 11 million people are refugees, and thousands killed.
For God 's sake, let us help end the fighting even if Russia won in our eyes. let us pick a different fight where countries are not destroyed.
For God 's sake, let us help end the fighting even if Russia won in our eyes. let us pick a different fight where countries are not destroyed.
The conflict may be ending soon but the suffering is not... It is a defeat of our Humanity?
Just say a prayer.
