The 2012 Aleppo Governorate clashes were a series of battles as part of the Syrian civil war in the Aleppo Governorate of Syria. The clashes started slowly following the twin bombings in Aleppo city on 10 February 2012, which were conducted by the jihadist anti-government organisation, the Al-Nusra Front to Protect the Levant. Over the next five months, major clashes left large parts of the rural countryside under rebel control, with the capital of the province, Aleppo city, still being firmly under government control. On 19 July, rebel forces stormed the city and a battle for control of Syria's largest city and economic hub had begun. == Background == There were anti-government protests in Aleppo, reported since 13 April 2011. However, the city itself was mostly peaceful and spared the violence of the war, unlike the rest of the country, being a government stronghold for the better part of the first year of the conflict.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Lone survivor describes Aleppo mass killings )〕〔(Survivor describes new Syria mass killing )〕 Anti-government activists called for a huge turnout on 30 June, although two small protests were held that day with only 1,000 demonstrators showing up. On 12 August, Syrian security forces fired at protesters in the Sakhur neighborhood, killing four people. On 17 August, "thousands" protested in the central square (Saadallah al-Jabiri square) of Aleppo and in other parts of the city. Opposition activists claimed that the security forces again opened fire at the protesters. On 6 September, there were reportedly huge crowds (20,000–40,000) protesting against the government after the killing of the Syrian Sunni Sheikh Ibrahim Salqini. On 27 September, the government stormed Aleppo with tanks. On 21 December, four protests were reportedly held at the university, where a student at the Faculty of Science was reportedly killed by government forces. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「2012 Aleppo Governorate clashes」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
