#6 What is Aleppo?
Aleppo is a city in Syria, serving as the capital of the Aleppo Governorate, formerly the most populous Syrian governorate. For centuries, Aleppo was the Syrian region`s largest city and the Ottoman Empire`s third-largest, after Constantinople and Cairo. Since the Battle of Aleppo started in 2012, the city has suffered massive destruction, and has been the worst-hit city in the Syrian Civil War. Recently, government forces have retaken the rebel portion of the city, thus completing their full conquest of Aleppo.
