With Russia’s consent, Syrian regime opens M5 for civilian movement and Aleppo international airport expected to return to service soon

Reliable sources informed SOHR that regime forces reopened Damascus – Aleppo international highway (M5) for civilian movement with Russia’s consent. According to SOHR sources, civilian vehicles and buses used the highway on their way to Aleppo and the Syrian coastline. This development comes a few days after the Russian-backed regime forces controlled the M5 highway completely.

On the other hand the Syrian regime is getting prepared for re-activating Aleppo international airport after more than eight years of suspension. The first flight is expected to take off tomorrow after securing the entire city of Aleppo and its vicinity over the past few days.
