Child rescued from rubble in Syria's Aleppo Members of the Aleppo civil defence took one hour to rescue a child stuck in the rubble after helicopters dropped barrel bombs in the Bab al-Nairab area, according to the civil defence. Dozens of civilians had tried to flee rebel-held east Aleppo overnight but were forced back by gunfire, as the Syrian army on Wednesday pressed an offensive to recapture the whole city.
