The situation in Aleppo and the surrounding areas has deteriorated as terrorist organizations, including al-Nusra Front and its affiliated groups, have been intensifying shelling against the city’s residential districts over the past weeks, giving no heed to the cessation of hostilities agreement. The shelling led to the martyrdom of scores of innocent people, wounded hundreds of others and caused huge destruction to public and private properties in the targeted districts.

Syria repeatedly informed the United Nations and the Security Council about the terrorists’ crimes in Aleppo and other Syrian cities and urged deterrent action against the terrorist groups and their supporters, but the international community has so far done nothing about this.
