Civilians Risk Their Lives to Flee Terrorist-Controlled Areas in Eastern Aleppo

A group of Syrian citizens managed to escape from areas under the control of the terrorists in the Eastern parts of the city of Aleppo.


Two families comprising 10 civilians escaped the terrorist-controlled areas via Hananu region from the direction of Tal (hill) al-Zohour.

They disclosed that they had tried many times to exit Eastern Aleppo, but every time they were blocked by the terrorist groups.

The two families said that the terrorists have blocked civilians' access to food and medicine to force them to join the militant groups as people are living in very difficult conditions.

They also said that the people in the terrorist-controlled areas cannot escape; "if they could no one would stay there". "Militants have closed off all roads and corridors to the outside world to use people as human shields."
