Russian Defense Ministry webcasts Aleppo evacuation

ISTANBUL

The Russian Defense Ministry is webcasting the evacuation of civilians from Aleppo on its official website, as efforts to evacuate the last rebel-held areas of Syria’s Aleppo are underway.

Opposition fighters and civilians are preparing to leave the city after years of fighting, a situation that would pave the way for handing the regime its biggest victory in more than five years of civil war.

The Russian military is also monitoring the operation with surveillance cameras and drones.
