Syrian Army defuses two explosive devices in Aleppo

Syria Army has defused two explosive devices in a neighborhood in Aleppo, as the government forces continue operations to clear the northwestern city of insurgents.

The bombs were discovered in the city’s Seif al-Dawla neighborhood on Thursday.

Earlier in the day, Syrian forces in Aleppo defused a 40-kilogram bomb planted by insurgents near a mosque.

The Syrian Army is upholding its operations in the war-ravaged city, making an effort to clear the city of insurgents while preserving public property.

Damascus had earlier expressed concern over the insurgents’ use of civilians as human shields in clashes with government forces.
