ALEPPO, Syria, Oct. 23 (UPI) -- Although a stop to bombings in Aleppo was meant to allow humanitarian aid to get to where it is needed and give residents a chance to flee the city to safer ground, neither occurred as a three-day cease-fire came and went Sunday, human rights officials said.
Fighting started in the beleaguered Aleppo almost as soon as the three-day cease-fire ended. Instead of leaving, residents protested the regime of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad for what it has done to the city.
