Jets pound Aleppo's rebel-held areas, defying US

None

BEIRUT -- Warplanes mounted the heaviest air strikes in months against rebel-held districts of the city of Aleppo overnight, rebel officials and the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said on Thursday.

 

There was no immediate comment from the Syrian military on the reports, or mention of Aleppo air strikes on state media.

 

"It was the heaviest air strikes for months inside Aleppo city. It was very intense. In that area we didn't see heavy fighting recently," said Observatory Director Rami Abdulrahman.
