To lift the siege | Internal Security Forces “Al-Asayesh” give regime forces period of 48 hours

Aleppo province: SOHR activists have reported that the Internal Security Forces “Al-Asayesh” gave a period of 48 hours to the regime forces to lift the siege over neighbourhoods of Kurdish forces in Aleppo city “Al-Shaikh Maksoud” and “Al-Ashrafiyah”, and displaced people in northern Aleppo countryside, or else “Al-Asayesh” will impose siege on the security centres that belong to regime forces in Al-Hasakah and Damascus.

Residents of “Al-Shaikh Maksoud” and “Al-Ashrafiyah” neighbourhoods in Aleppo suffer harsh living conditions and several crises including the complete cut of power, because generators stopped operating.

Yesterday, SOHR activists reported that members of the 4th Division of the regime had been harassing residents forcibly displaced from Afrin to northern Aleppo countryside and Al-Shaikh Maksoud and Al-Ashrafiyah neighbourhoods in Aleppo for the second consecutive month, leading to the complete absence of diesel, negatively affecting the residents and caused power to cut off nearly 300,000 displaced people.
