Damascus: The Syrian army continued its crackdown on opposition forces in
the country's industrial and financial centre Aleppo, reported
Syria's state TV Tuesday.
Some observers view the battle for Aleppo as a major watershed in
the Syrian conflict which could decide the future of the armed
uprising against President Bashar Al Assad.
"Armed forces continue to hunt the remnants of 'terrorist' groups
in Aleppo's Salaheddin district and inflict heavy losses on the
enemy," said the report.
Aleppo, a city of 2.5 million people, has remained the hotspot of
Syria's civil conflict since last week, when pro-government forces
launched a massive assault on the city in a colossal push to
regain control of key territories across the country.
