Video footage of the Syrian Army advance in east Aleppo

The Syrian Arab Army’s Republican Guard continued their large-scale offensive in the eastern districts of Aleppo on Tuesday, targeting the jihadist-controlled Bustan Al-Basha District near the predominately Kurdish Sheikh Maqsoud Quarter.

Led by the 102nd Brigade of the Republican Guard, the Syrian Armed Forces managed to capture several building blocks inside of Bustan Al-Basha, leaving a little more than half the district under the control of Harakat Nouriddeen Al-Zinki and the Free Syrian Army (FSA).

Video footage of this advance was captured by Hezbollah’s official media wing on Tuesday (below):

Since their powerful assault concluded on Tuesday night, the Syrian Arab Army has taken a backseat to the Syrian Arab Air Force (SAAYF), who has carried out more than 30 airstrikes above the Bustan Al-Basha District tonight.
