As the fight for Aleppo, Syria's largest city, goes on, larger swaths of
the commercial capital are being flattened and destroyed by gunfire and
shelling. The increasing violence has affected more than just the
rebels who are struggling to hold territory against the government:
journalists and ambulance drivers have been hit as well. The United
Nations says at least 200,000 people have fled, with many expecting a
climactic battle for the country's north.
