Syrian army announces temporary withdrawal from Aleppo after rebel assault.

Military says dozens of soldiers killed in attacks in northwest and it was regrouping to launch a ‘counterattack’.

Is battle for Aleppo part of Syria’s war? yes.
Opposition forces stormed into regime-held areas, shaking the status quo and bringing the war back into the spotlight.

Is the current fighting part of Syria’s ongoing war?...Yes.VSyria’s revolution of 2011 failed to topple country’s leader, Bashar al-Assad. He leaned on the support of his allies, Russia, Iran and the Lebanese group Hezbollah, who joined his forces in trying to put down the uprising.

Fighting drew in both existing regional armed groups, such as ISIL (ISIS) & al-Qaeda – who established linkages to groups in Syria – created new factions such as Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), who led last week’s attack on Aleppo.
