Military source: Terrorists are intensifying their attacks against civilians in the city of Aleppo, army is responding

Damascus, ST- Armed terrorist groups, positioned on the western outskirts of Aleppo province, have intensified their crimes and attacks against populated safe neighborhoods in Aleppo City through shelling them with rockets and explosive shells as tens of civilians have been martyred and others have been injured, mostly women and children, a military source said.

The  terrorist organizations have also  attacked the humanitarian corridors which have been opened for the exit of civilians from the areas where terrorists spread, in an attempt to prevent citizens from exiting and to continue to use them as human shields, the source added.

The source continued that the Amy and Armed Forces General Command affirms that it will exert all possible efforts to save the civilians and to evacuate them from the areas where terrorists are positioned, and it asserts that the  military operations that  are targeting terrorists’ positions come in  the framework of responding to the repeated attacks launched by terrorists against civilians.

Terrorist groups are using  the western outskirts of Aleppo as a base to carry out their attacks with shells and sniper bullets on the residential neighborhoods in the city and the neighboring safe villages and towns, which leads to the rise of martyrs and civilian casualties, in addition to material damage to homes and private and public properties.
