Celebrations prevailed Syria's northern city of Aleppo, just minutes after the army declared the city free of terror/rebels on Thursday.
Honking their cars while waving the Syrian flags, hundreds of people thronged the squares of western Aleppo chanting slogans in support of President Bashar al-Assad and Aleppo.
"Here is Aleppo", and "Aleppo is back," chanted the demonstrators.
"I would like to say that today the victory in Aleppo, tomorrow in all of Syria. We tell the terror/rebels that we are here and we are the victors," Qadri, a demonstrator, told Xinhua.
Sabah, another demonstrator, said "we are so happy. This happiness is indescribable and it's the best joy we have had in a long time. Now we are the happiest people in the country. Everyone here is happy, the boys, the men and women."
For his part, Shadi said "we have earned this happiness. We have been waiting for this day for a very long time. Thanks God the time of terrorists is over."
On Thursday evening, the Syrian army declared the liberation of eastern Aleppo city, as the last batch of rebels left the city, making Aleppo city completely under the government control.
