Civilian Evacuation Of Aleppo Stalls

Several buses being used to free people from rebel-held villages in Syria have reportedly been attacked.

The vehicles are trying to withdraw 2-thousand ill and injured people, in return for a similar number from east Aleppo. The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights says some vehicles have been burned. Meanwhile the UN Security Council will vote later on a French proposal to send independent observers to monitor the operation in Aleppo.
