During his visit to Aleppo, Seyyed Abolfazl Tabatabaee Ashkezari met with the families of martyrs, the Shia and Sunni religious scholars as well as the local military and government officials.
The Supreme Leader's envoy urged the local officials to pursue resolution of people's problems in the recently liberated Nubl and al-Zahraa regions, northwest of Aleppo.
The siege of Nubl and al-Zahraa during the Syrian foreign sponsored civil war was laid by rebels to capture two state-held towns north of Aleppo, after they had seized most of the northern countryside in July 2012. The siege was lifted on 3 February 2016, as a result of a Syrian army offensive.
