At least 34 killed in Aleppo clashes

At least 20 members of regime security forces and 14 rebels were killed in an attack earlier today on an intelligence headquarters building in the Syrian city of Aleppo, a monitor says.

The attack, which began with a powerful bomb blast in a tunnel targeting air force intelligence offices, was aimed at seizing the building but failed, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights says.

Sporadic fighting was continuing in the area but heavy clashes had subsided, according to the monitor.
