Syrian civilians under attack
In eastern Aleppo, 275,000 civilians are under attack from Syrian and Russian bombers and cut off from all aid according to the United Nations. As Elizabeth Palmer reports, the bombing looks like a deliberate campaign of terror to force civilians to flee.
Syrian war analysis
The United States opposes the rule of President Assad in Syria, but he's tightened his grip on power with support from Russia, as the nation's humanitarian crisis grows worse. Nicholas Burns, professor of International Relations at Harvard Kennedy School of Government and former U.S. Ambassador to NATO under President George W. Bush, joins CBSN to discuss the crisis in Syria.

Aleppo airstrikes

Syrian aid demolished
The U.S. is pointing the finger at Russia for an attack on a UN convoy in Syria that demolished aid headed for war-torn Aleppo. The only planes flying in the area at the time of the strike were Syrian or Russian. As Elizabeth Palmer reports, Russia is denying the claims.
Syria cease-fire fails
The United Nations shut down all aid shipments to Syria after a convoy was hit by an airstrike. The Syrian Red Crescent says the overnight attack killed several people, including at least one aid worker. It follows a weekend airstrike by an American-led coalition that killed dozens of Syrian government troops. Elizabeth Palmer reports from Aleppo, Syria, where the violence has left a weeklong cease-fire in shambles.

Syria gridlock
The latest convoy bringing food and supplies to the civil war-ravaged city of Aleppo is being held in Syria, after crossing from neighboring Turkey.

Secretary of State John Kerry is asking his Russian counterpart to pressure the Syrian government to end the delay. Meanwhile in Aleppo, the situation grows more dire. Elizabeth Palmer reports.
Aleppo divided
Aleppo is divided in two between the government and its armed opposition. One side of Aleppo is starving. Trucks that were supposed to bring food and medicine to rebel-held neighborhoods are still blocked off in spite of the ceasefire. Meanwhile, across town, people are enjoying the small pleasures of normal life. Elizabeth Palmer reports.
G-20: No Syria ceasefire deal
