Syrian army and allies now holds around two-thirds of Aleppo’s east after taking control of several neighborhoods from Takfiri militants.
The allied forces took control of al-Qatarji, Karm al-Tahan and the national hospital in Aleppo’s east, Hezbollah’s Military Media Center reported on Monday.
The center said that by this swift advance, the allied forces now hold two-thirds of Aleppo’s eastern neighborhoods.
Meanwhile, the center released audio recordings of militant commanders accusing terrorists of Nusra Front and Nour al-Din al-Zinki groups of falling behind in supporting other militants in eastern Aleppo.
On the other hand, the so-called Syrian Observatory for Human Rights also reported the advance by the Syrian army and allies in eastern Aleppo.
The London-based observatory reported that the allied forces seized the Qadi Askar neighborhood after earlier capturing the Karm al-Myessar, Karm al-Qatarji and Karm al-Tahan neighborhoods, according to AFP news agency.
The group said the advances left the large Shaar neighborhood effectively encircled by allied forces and in danger of falling from militants’ control.
