Situation in Aleppo worrying and complex
YEREVAN (ARMENPRESS) — The situation in the Syrian city of Aleppo is currently concerning and complex. In an interview with Armenpress, editor of Aleppo’s Gandzasar weekly Zarmik Poghikyan, commented on the news of anti-government armed groups invading the city.
“The situation is worrying and complex,” Poghikyan stated, adding that Armenians in Aleppo are currently staying in their homes.

On November 29, anti-government armed groups in Syria invaded Aleppo, announcing the capture of the Aleppo Municipality and sharing videos to confirm this claim.
Armenia has temporarily suspended the activities of its humanitarian demining and medical team in Aleppo, Syria, which has been operating there since 2019. The team has returned to Armenia.
