Aleppo city is called besieged
Geneva (AFP) October 5, 2016 - The rebel-held east of Syria's Aleppo has officially been declared a 'besieged area', following a months-long government offensive and a lack of access for aid workers, the UN said Wednesday.
United Nations humanitarian agency (OCHA) spokesman Jens Laerke said eastern Aleppo now met all three criteria used to define an area as besieged.
That includes military encirclement, lack of humanitarian access and the lack of free movement for civilians.
