The situation in Syria's economic capital Aleppo has not changed
during the recent days. The sounds of shelling have become common
for the residents who face a number of issues.
According to Tert.am's Aleppo-Armenian sources, the blasts are far
from the Armenian districts.
The city is deserting in evening hours as the electricity supply
there has stopped for several days.
The electricity has been restored yesterday at the afternoon for just
few hours. To smooth the bread crisis planes are bringing bread to
Aleppo, but the issue is still far from being solved.
Video has been spread in the Internet where Aleppo citizens are
standing in line for hours to take a package of bread home.
Aleppo Armenians say people spend evening hours under candle light,
cover with blankets to warm up. It is impossible to find fuel in
the city.
A number of Syrian ministers headed by the PM visited Aleppo offering
a number of solutions. Earlier Tert.am has reported about intensive
fights near Armenian-populated Yakubie settlement in Idlib province
which the rebels try to occupy.
According to the sources, Yakubie is still controlled by the
governmental troops, but the rebels have already seized the nearby
villages and it is not safe in the Armenian settlements any more.
