Syria rebels fire on Aleppo evacuation route – state TV
In a breaking news alert, Syrian state television says rockets had been fired at the Castello road leading north from the divided city, where Moscow said it was observing a 10-hour ceasefire

DAMASCUS, Syria – Syrian rebels fired rockets at one of the 8 evacuation corridors opened from opposition-held east Aleppo during a unilateral Russian-declared ceasefire on Friday, November 4, Syrian state television reported.

In a breaking news alert, the television said rockets had been fired at the Castello road leading north from the divided city, where Moscow said it was observing a 10-hour ceasefire on Friday.

It said a reporter with another Syrian television channel had been wounded by shrapnel from the rocket fire.

The so-called “humanitarian pause” declared by Moscow began on Friday morning, but half-way through the brief ceasefire there was no sign that either civilians or rebels were heeding calls to leave.

State television said rebels were preventing residents from leaving the opposition-held east of the city, where more than 250,000 people have been under siege by the army since July. – Rappler.com
