After weeks of heavy fighting, government forces were poised on Tuesday to take full control of Aleppo, dealing the biggest blow to Syria's uprising in more than five years of civil war.
Fears have been growing for thousands of trapped civilians as the opposition terror/fighters make a desperate last stand in their remaining pocket of territory in their former opposition stronghold.
"An agreement has been reached for the evacuation of the residents of Aleppo, civilians and [terror] fighters with their light weapons, from the besieged districts of east Aleppo," Yasser al-Youssef, from the political office of the Nurredin al-Zinki group, told AFP news agency.
