Outside of the humanitarian crisis in Deir Ezzor, there has been no other city in Syria that has suffered as much as Aleppo.

Without water and electricity, life inside Aleppo is unbearable for the civilians living in the middle of this war-zone.

Nonstop fighting for the last 3.5 years has left much of this ancient city in ruins and half of its population displaced in nearby provinces and countries.

The only glimmer of hope for these exhausted civilians came from the cessation of hostilities agreement that was recently implemented.

While the occasional gas canister is still fired by the extremist rebels into the government controlled neighborhoods of Aleppo, the prevalence of these attacks have greatly diminished.

Giving the people another reason to be optimistic, water has finally returned to the city after an 80 day absence.

According to locals, water has not returned to all neighborhoods, but most areas now have access to public water that was originally deprived to them because the rebels control the water supply in the Suleiman Al-Halabi District.
