The BBC reports that Syrian fighters have begun a bombing campaign against the northern city of Aleppo, representing a significant escalation of the conflict. Anti-government forces had launched an offensive in Aleppo over the weekend, though it is unclear if they control the city.
Meanwhile, the Assad regime has reportedly moved chemical weapons to airports along Syria’s borders, according to The Telegraph. “We in the joint command of the Free Syrian Army inside the country know very well the locations and positions of these weapons,” a statement from the FSA said.
