Hammuriyeh
(Syria) (AFP) - Syrian forces pursued a relentless air and ground
offensive against Eastern Ghouta on Thursday, moving closer to retaking
the rebel enclave but also depriving desperate civilians of vital aid.
More
than 930 civilians have been killed in the nearly three-week assault on
the last rebel enclave outside the capital, where dozens suffered
overnight from a suspected chlorine attack.
On
another front in Syria's complex seven-year war, pro-Turkey rebels
seized control of the key northern town of Jandairis from Kurdish
fighters.
Russia-backed
government forces have retaken more than half of Eastern Ghouta, a
monitor says, since launching their devastating offensive on the enclave
on February 18.
