ISIS and Al-Nusra snipers ensconced in Eastern Aleppo are deliberately shooting at civilians trying to escape, letting no one out, local residents told RT’s Murad Gazdiev. The snipers also frequently attempt to shoot at civilians, children included, in the government-controlled Western Aleppo, and randomly fire missiles into the area.

An RT crew has been to the front line inside the embattled city and brought back the grim picture of what it takes to live there.

The US government is steadfastly refusing to attack Nusra (al-qaeda in Syria) and ISIS because these two terrorist groups form the back bone of the US jihadi army that the US government has been using for the past 5 years to overthrow the democratically-elected Syrian government.
