Photos: Civilians flee Aleppo amid intensified fighting

Fierce fighting between Syrian government forces and the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) has raged for a third consecutive day in northern Aleppo, forcing tens of thousands of residents to flee their homes.

The Syrian Army Operations Command imposed a curfew on Thursday at 1:30pm (10:30 GMT) across the Kurdish-majority neighbourhoods of Sheikh Maqsoud, Ashrafieh and Bani Zeid. Following this declaration, government forces launched what they termed “targeted operations” against SDF positions in these areas.
