Syria: Evacuations restart after terrorist attack
Civilians leave towns caught up in civil war

EVACUATIONS from al-Qaida strongholds and besieged government-held towns resumed in Syria yesterday after the weekend’s terrorist slaughter.

But the violence continued yesterday, with a terrorist bombing on a funeral in Aleppo killing six people and wounding dozens more.

Around 3,000 civilians left the besieged government-held towns of Foua and Kfarya in Idlib province, boarding 45 buses for Aleppo to the east.
