Kurdish fighters have been evacuated from a contested neighborhood in Aleppo, Syria, after days of violent clashes with government forces. State media reports that buses have transported the fighters to northeastern Syria, controlled by the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces. SDF commander Mazloum Abdi has confirmed a ceasefire and evacuation agreement through international mediation. The fighting that began Tuesday has killed at least 22 people and displaced over 140,000. U.S. Special Envoy to Syria Tom Barrack has urged all parties to cease hostilities and return to dialogue. The situation remains tense, with ongoing security operations in the area.
