MOSCOW - The Syrian government now controls 93 percent of Aleppo, Russian news agencies cited the Russian Defense Ministry as saying on Saturday.

"People are leaving through humanitarian corridors in a continuous flow into the part of the city that is controlled by the Syrian government," Defense Ministry spokesman Igor Konashenkov said, according to Interfax.

Konashenkov added that after the removal of civilians was completed, Syrian government forces would continue to "liberate" eastern Aleppo.
