Aleppo has been under fire for months now, with the Syrian regime and rebels going head to head to claim the key area, once and for all. There has been a brief pause in fighting to let in humanitarian assistance, but soon, the battle will begin again, and it could be in its final stages, becoming a significant turning point in the five-year war.
