Syrian Army continues east Aleppo assault

ALEPPO, SYRIA (1:30 P.M.) – The Syrian Arab Army (SAA) continued their massive offensive inside the eastern neighborhoods of Aleppo on Wednesday, targeting the jihadist rebel defenses from three different axes.

Led by the Republican Guard, the Syrian Arab Army stormed the Salahiddeen District’s western axis on Wednesday, destroying one of Fatah Halab’s command-and-control centers.

Meanwhile, at Farafira in east Aleppo, the Syrian Armed Forces fully secured the area after a brief skirmish with the Fatah Halab militants that attempted to reenter the district earlier today.

Intense clashes are still ongoing around the east Aleppo neighborhoods, as the Syrian Armed Forces attempt to capitalize on their recent success.
