300,000 cut off from aid in Syria’s Aleppo: UN official

‘A United Nations spokeswoman has expressed concerns about intensified fighting between Syria’s warring sides in the northwestern city of Aleppo, saying the clashes have cut off an estimated 300,000 people from humanitarian supplies.
Alessandra Vellucci told a regular UN briefing in the Swiss city of Geneva on Tuesday that the only road allowing access for humanitarian aid deliveries into the militant-held part of Aleppo has been completely cut off due to confrontation between Syrian government forces and militants.
Vellucci said that 300,000 people depend on the Castello road, the only path into eastern Aleppo, which is held by the terrorists.’
