A monitor of Syria’s war said on Saturday that jihadist rebels now control a majority of Aleppo city, reporting Russian air strikes on parts of Syria’s second city for the first time since 2016. The rebels have pressed a lightning offensive against forces of the Iranian- and Russian-backed Syrian government since Wednesday.
