Syria: 35 Iran militias killed in Aleppo

Free Syrian Army members defeated an attack staged by the troops of Syrian dictator Bashar Assad on Wednesday aiming to take hold of Aleppo’s Sheikh Saeed district. Dozens of militias linked to Iran were killed in this attack.
35 Iran-linked militias were killed in these attacks and a number of others were injured, said Captain Abdulsalam Abdulrazzaq, a spokesman of groups linked to the FSA, in an interview with Orient TV. FSA rebels were able to retake all positions taken over by the militias in Sheikh Saeed.
The FSA also captured four Iran-linked militias, all from Afghanistan.
Thousands of civilians have been forced to flee areas controlled by Iran-backed Shiite militias, seeking shelter in northeast Aleppo.
