Fighting raged on Sunday near Aleppo international airport

Fighting raged on Sunday near Aleppo international airport and nearby air bases as the battle for Syria's second city entered its second year, a monitoring group said.
"Fierce clashes broke out at dawn near Aleppo international airport and Nairab air base," said the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, also reporting fighting in the Suleiman Halabi district of the city, once Syria's commercial hub.
The Britain-based watchdog also reported overnight clashes at Kwayris military airport. The violence in Aleppo comes a year after a massive rebel advance into the  provincial capital. [AFP]
