Syria Rebels Urge Aleppo Mobilisation To Halt Assault -- BBC
A jihadist rebel group affiliated to al-Qaeda has joined calls for a mass mobilisation in the Syrian city of Aleppo to halt a government advance.
A statement by the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIS) urged "all brigades and Muslims to face off against the enemy", activists said.
On Monday, six other Islamist rebel groups issued a call to arms in Aleppo.
It came after the army secured the area around the city's airport and retook a strategically important base nearby.
Analysts said the capture of Base 80, a large military position which rebels had held since February, would help troops move on opposition-held areas of Aleppo.
Earlier this month, they seized the town of Safira, south-east of the city. On Monday, the town of Tal Aran, on the Safira-Aleppo road, also fell.
