In Aleppo, the airport and all roads leading to the city are closed. Government troops were ordered to “carefully withdraw.”
Russia, one of Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad’s main allies, has already promised Damascus more military aid to stop the rebels from advancing. Reuters reported this on Friday, November 29.
It was noted that new military equipment from Moscow will begin arriving in Syria within the next 72 hours.
The agency wrote that at this time the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) was ordered to carry out a “safe withdrawal” from the main areas of the city where the rebels entered.
However, on Friday, Syrian state television denied that the rebels had reached the city of Aleppo. State media also said the Russian Federation was providing air support to the Syrian army.
We remind you that Bashar al-Assad urgently flew to Moscow on Thursday, November 28, amid a massive offensive by rebels against his army.
On Wednesday, rebels began attacking a dozen towns and villages in northwestern Aleppo province, which is controlled by Assad’s forces, according to The Jerusalem Post. For the first time in many years, they got a certain territory. It was their first offensive in five years against Assad’s army and the Russian contingent.
