Aleppo analysis
CBS News' Holly Williams reports on the evacuations underway in Aleppo, Syria.
Syria Crisis
Desperate rush to evacuate Aleppo
A desperate evacuation is underway in the besieged Syrian city of Aleppo. Video appears to show a convoy of ambulances bringing injured people from the tiny area still held by rebels. Syrian government buses are ready to remove thousands of trapped civilians. Holly Williams reports from Istanbul on how a convoy came under fire.
Aleppo cease-fire collapses
Fighting has resumed in the Syrian city of Aleppo after a cease-fire deal fell apart. CBS News' Holly Williams spoke to CBSN from the Turkey-Syria border.
Devastation in Aleppo
Reports of mass executions of civilians are coming out of the Syrian city of Aleppo. Gayle Tzemach Lemmon, senior fellow for the Council On Foreign Relations, spoke to CBSN about the frightening developments.
Civilians massacred
A United Nations report said that militias supporting the Syrian government apparently executed 82 civilians in Aleppo as the remaining rebel-held areas fell. Debora Patta reports on the "complete meltdown of humanity."
Syrian rebels cornered
The Syrian regime, backed by Russian forces, has retaken nearly all of Aleppo from rebels and is launching more airstrikes against the few holdouts. But retaking Aleppo came at a cost. ISIS took control of the ancient city of Palmyra only nine months after the Syrian regime regained it from the terror group. Debora Patta reports.
ISIS seizes Palmyra
ISIS militants have reportedly retaken control of the Syrian city of Palmyra from government control. CBS News foreign correspondent Debora Patta joins CBSN from Aleppo with the latest developments on the battle for Syria.
Inside Aleppo
Syrian and Russian troops are continuing their assault on Aleppo. They're trying to retake the city from U.S.-backed rebels. Debora Patta has more.
Escape from Aleppo
Russian and Syrian warplanes have resumed bombing the eastern districts of Aleppo. There had been a humanitarian pause. Debora Patta was there as a rush of families tried to escape the war zone.
Aleppo close to falling
The Syrian government's relentless shelling of Aleppo left seven-year-old Abdul Ghani Tarab with shrapnel wounds. The bombings also destroyed the remaining hospitals in rebel-held Aleppo. Tarab is just now getting surgery, two weeks later. Thousands of civilians are still in danger as Aleppo is close to falling. Debora Patta reports.
Syrian civilians in peril
The Assad regime is pushing to regain full control of Aleppo as rebels keep losing territory under relentless bombing. About 200,000 civilians are trapped. Debora Patta reports from Aleppo.
Families torn by Syrian war
Syrian government troops are pushing deeper into rebel-held parts in Aleppo. Regime forces now control more than 70 percent of Syria's largest city. Reports from inside Syria Wednesday indicate some rebel groups are calling for a truce. The battle has left hundreds of Aleppo residents dead and tens of thousands of families have fled. Debora Patta spoke with one family who never left and never gave up hope.
Russians in Aleppo
Russian forces are on the ground in Aleppo, backing the Syrian military as it systematically destroys neighborhoods held by rebels. Debora Patta reports from the devastated city, where she spoke to a Russian general.
Syrian families flee
The United States and Russia begin talks this week on the fighting in Aleppo, Syria. Russia's foreign minister says he expects a deal to withdraw rebel forces from the city. Russian-backed air strikes in southwestern Syria over the weekend killed more than 70 people. Debora Patta reports from Aleppo.
Aleppo falling to Assad
Syria's largest city, Aleppo, which was taken over in 2012 by anti-government rebels backed by the U.S., is slowly falling back under control of the Assad regime. For those who manage to escape to the government side, a hot meal and medical care await. Debora Patta reports.
Aleppo in ruins
The five-year-long civil war in Syria that left almost half a million people dead may be reaching a turning point. Russia's foreign minister said Saturday Russia is ready for talks with the U.S. on a rebel pullout from the besieged city of Aleppo. A human rights group says Syrian government forces, with the help of Russia, have captured 60 percent of Syria's largest city that was previously held by rebels. But the gains come with a staggering cost. Debora Patta reports from Aleppo.
Aleppo update
Syrian government forces backed by Russia are intensifying their bombing campaign in rebel-held Eastern Aleppo, retaking some parts of the city but leaving many civilians homeless. Debora Patta reports.
Aleppo families flee
The United Nations estimates that 200,000 people are still inside eastern Aleppo, trapped between the Syrian army and the rebel fighters amid relentless shelling continues. The U.N. wants the fighting to stop temporarily so that the sick and injured can evacuate. But the Syrian government has responded with silence. Debora Patta reports.
Assault on Aleppo
Dozens of civilians have been killed in recent attacks as Syrian government forces push toward rebel-held Eastern Aleppo. Civilians who have managed to escape the attacks are being housed in makeshift shelters, though many are already filled to capacity. Debora Patta reports.
Syrian army seizes rebel ground
Russia says the Syrian army has made a breakthrough in Aleppo in the past 24 hours and dramatically altered the situation on the ground. Syrian forces now control about 40 percent of the territory taken by opposition fighters in 2012. Thousands of civilians have been flooding out of the battle zone. Elizabeth Palmer reports.
Aleppo evacuation
A mass exodus from Syria's largest city Aleppo comes amid a government military offensive that recaptured large portions previously controlled by rebel fighters. WIth backing from Russia, Syrian government troops coordinated strikes for three straight months. Elizabeth Palmer reports this could be a turning point in Syria's 5 1/2 year-old old civil war.
Advancing into Aleppo
The Syrian government continues to advance into Aleppo and has claimed several key parts of the city from rebel forces. CBS News foreign correspondent Elizabeth Palmer joins CBSN with the latest details.
Rebels losing Aleppo
The Syrian government has advanced deeper into Aleppo, reclaiming several key districts from rebel forces. CBSN's Meg Oliver has the latest details.
Bombing in Syria
In Syria, the Assad regime, with the help of Russia, is systematically destroying much of its largest city. Rebel-held eastern Aleppo is staggering under the worst bombing of the civil war, now in its sixth year. Elizabeth Palmer reports.
Syria update
Rebel shelling killed eight school children in Aleppo on Sunday, while a barrel bomb launched by regime forces killed a family of six. The number of civilians caught in the crossfire in war-torn Syria continues to grow as hospitals have become targets. Jonathan Vigliotti has more.
