Heated clashes go on in Syria's Aleppo

Syria's largest city, Aleppo, continued facing bomb attacks throughout Friday.
Following months of violent clashes between armed opposition rebels
and the government forces, the city came under a missile attack, which
killed 12 people, including children.
Tert.am has learned from sources in Aleppo that the situation was very
tense in the vicinities of the Armenian districts, where over a dozen
of mines went off.
Heated clashes took place in the Pasha district which was formerly
home to an Armenian nursing house. The institution later moved to a
more secure area.
The noises of missiles and explosions were also heard in the Armenian
populated neighborhoods of Nor Kyugh and Villas.
Rights defenders reportedly believe that the number of victims may
increase given that the buildings which collapsed after the missile
attack still have people lying behind the rubble.
The clashes in Aleppo, Syria's economic capital, have been continuing
since summer 2012.
