Armenian geriatric home is situated, there were shots, but the old
people are safe, only the building was a bit damaged because of the
explosions.
Reyisyan also informed that it has been already 20 days the militaries
are trying to occupy the building of Aleppo's radio station and

remains under the control of the forces. Concerning the Aleppo's
airport area, according to Reyisyan, the army inspects the territory
with strict measures.
The Aleppo Armenians mentioned that in Armenian districts, in general,
the situation is relatively quiet. The city begins to awake:
electricity and water are round-the-clock, though Internet still does
not function. Aleppo Armenians hope that the situation will improve.
More than 20,000 people, including more than 10 Armenians, died in the
collisions between the opposition and government forces, which have
lasted about 18 months.
