The rebels attacked the positions of the Assad army in the area of western Aleppo, taking advantage of the absence of Russian troops. Bashar al-Assad urgently arrived in Russia amid the aggravation of the situation.
There is a serious escalation in Syria. The rebels, for the first time in 5 years, launched a large-scale offensive against the Assad army and the Russian contingent. This is reported by The Jerusalem Post, reports UNN.
Syrian rebels launched a massive attack on government-controlled areas, sparking fierce clashes on the second day and seizing territory in western Aleppo. They take advantage of the fact that Israel defeated the Hezbollah group, and Russia sent most of its military from Syria to Ukraine.
The reason for the intensification of military operations, as stated by the Rebels, is the increased frequency of strikes on civilian targets from areas of Aleppo. The latest attack took place on November 26, killing three children and injuring 14 civilians.
The offensive is underway in the direction of Aleppo, the capital of the province of the same name. Before the destruction of the city by Russian aircraft, it was considered a powerful, rich industrial and Cultural Center in northern Syria. Russia and Assad have turned it into ruins.
The situation seems to have become critical, as Bashar al-Assad, who has been president of Syria since 2000, arrived in Russia unplanned. Russian President Vladimir Putin is currently in Kazakhstan, where the CSTO summit is being held.
Interestingly, the official Russian media do not report on Bashar al-Assad's visit to Russia. This became known from the message of the Channel Halab Today
It is not known who Assad is meeting while the Russian President and his ally are absent.
