Jan 10 (Reuters) – The Syrian army said on Saturday that it had finished combing through Aleppo city’s Sheikh Maksoud neighbourhood, signalling a takeover from Kurdish fighters.
The Syrian army earlier said it would push into the last Kurdish-held district of Aleppo on Friday after Kurdish groups there rejected a government demand for their fighters to withdraw under a ceasefire deal.
