Armenian district hit in Aleppo blast – 

The historical Armenian neighborhoods of Aleppo continue facing mortar and missile attacks and rocket blasts amid the continuing clashes.

An Armenian prelacy building and a church were the target of a recent attack. Armed rebels have also hit a jewelry market in the city’s Farhat neighborhood, a local Armenian news outlets reports in a post on Facebook.

A makeshift rocket fell and exploded on a residential building whose top floor had an apartment belonging to an Armenian and workshops owned by Armenian jewel-makers. The damages are said to be only material.

The neighborhood has remained deserted in the wake of the rebel attacks, with most of the Armenians having moved to safer areas.
