Aleppo – Saber al-Halabi
During the first years of the Syrian revolution, the neighborhoods of Aleppo city in northwestern Syria were divided under the control of the opposition factions and the Syrian regime. The eastern neighborhoods that were a former rebel enclave suffered a siege and a military campaign that ended with building destruction and displacement of residents.
Four years and three months have passed since the regime and its militias regained control of the eastern neighborhoods of Aleppo governorate at the end of 2016. During these years, the siege that involved closing roads took other forms, while arrests, intimidations, and service neglect continued to prevail.
