ALEPPO:The fall of Syria’s second city, Aleppo, to Islamist-led militants has brought flight and displacement for some, but for others like Bahria Bakkur, it has led to long-awaited reunions.
After almost a decade apart, 43-year-old Bakkur was finally able to embrace her son, separated when government forces reclaimed control of their city.
The Islamist-led militants’ lightning assault on Aleppo has revived a war that had been mostly dormant for years.
