Aleppo: Resistance killed 300 regime troops as Assad army presses to recapture ground

(Zaman Al Wasl)- Syrian resistance have killed more than 300 regime troops this week as Bashar al-Assad's forces press to recapture a military complex they lost two week ago in the battleground city of Aleppo, rebel commander said on Tuesday.

Captain Naji al-Mustafa, senior commander in Suqour al-Jabal Brigade said the resistance forces have inflicted humiliating defeat on the Assad forces and their allied militias, killing and wounding dozens as well destroying 5 tanks on the battlefront of Ramussa.

Zaman al-Wasl reporter said Tuesday that the resistance has recaptured all lost points from regime forces following fierce battles in Ramussa.

A leader in Syrian resistance disclaimed any regime advance in the Air Force Technical School located near Artillery faculty in Ramussa, confirming the resistance killed dozens of regime army and Lebanese Hezbollah militia by an ambush on the strategic school gate.

Omar Salkhou, leader in Nur al-Din al-Zanki Movement subordinate to Syrian resistance, announced in a footage posted online that the movement is prepared to open humanitarian corridors to for besieged civilians in al-Sheikh Maqsood neighborhood under the control of Kurdish People’s Protection Units (YPG).

It should be noted the recent tension between YPG and regime forces in Hasakah province extended to the two sides’ points of contact in Aleppo amid unconfirmed news of cutting cross points and roads between the two sides controlled areas.

The United Nations is ready to deliver aid into Syria's Aleppo, but needs commitments from all parties in the war - not just Russia - to abide by a 48-hour humanitarian truce, the U.N. aid chief, angered by lack of assistance to civilians, said on Monday.

Russia, which has been backing Syrian government forces with a bombing campaign, said on Thursday it supported the truce. The United Nations wants a weekly two-day halt in fighting to allow access to rebel-held eastern and government-controlled western Aleppo.

Aleppo, Syria's most populous pre-war city and its commercial hub, has become the focus of fighting in the five-year-old civil war. Up to 2 million people on both sides lack clean water after infrastructure was damaged in bombing.

More than 400,000 people have been killed and millions displaced since the beginning of Syria's revolution, which started in 2011 with anti-regime protests.
