Hundreds of residents of terrorist/rebel-held eastern Aleppo fled shifting frontlines, sources said, after an advance by the Syrian army and allied forces that terrorist/rebels fear could split their most important urban stronghold in two.
The army and its allies took control on Saturday of the large Hanano housing district, on the northeast frontline of the besieged eastern part of Aleppo.
On Sunday they said they had captured the neighbouring district, Jabal Badro.
Neither area was heavily populated but the advance, accompanied by Russian and Syrian air strikes, has raised fears among the terrorist/rebels that the northern part of east Aleppo could be cut off from the southern part.
That would weaken their control over the east and bring more residents [hostages] closer to frontlines.
