Syrian government troops engaged in battle with insurgents in Aleppo, marking the first significant confrontations in the city since 2016's aggressive conflict.
Russian warplanes reportedly killed approximately 200 militants in response to the insurgent assault, a claim made by Oleg Ignasyuk from the Russian Defence Ministry.
Recent clashes saw insurgents breaking through government defenses in Aleppo, securing control of numerous towns and villages, escalating tensions in the region.
Local sources indicated that Aleppo residents were fleeing fighting amidst heavy gunfire, prompting closures of schools and government offices as safety measures.
