FILE - In this Thursday, Oct. 11, 2012 file photo, a Syrian youth cries next to the truck holding the body his brother, killed by Syrian Army shelling, outside Dar al-Shifa hospital in Aleppo, Syria. The Aleppo rebellion started off in the rural areas of Aleppo province, not in the city as was the case in most other parts of Syria. Regime forces punish the city daily with artillery and airstrikes. Civilians are killed and wounded while standing on breadlines, walking the streets or watching television at home. Snipers target civilians in areas where rebels have positions. Members of staff at the rebels' field hospital say 80 percent of the average 100-120 cases they treat daily are civilians. Some residents blame the rebels. (AP Photo/ Manu Brabo, File)
