Syria: Army Bombards Kurdish Neighborhoods of Aleppo, Demanding Surrender

The Syrian army has called on Kurdish fighters remaining in a neighborhood of Aleppo to surrender, resuming bombardments to dislodge them. The clashes began on Tuesday and have resulted in at least 21 deaths. Tens of thousands of civilians have been forced to flee their homes, with the UN estimating 30,000 families have been displaced. The Kurds have refused to surrender and wish to defend their neighborhoods, while the army threatens further bombardments. These clashes occur amid efforts to implement an agreement providing for the integration of Kurdish institutions into the Syrian state.
