Drone footage shows how Syrian city of Aleppo still appears a modern thriving town in government-held areas and a devastated warzone elsewhere

Drone footage shows how Syrian city of Aleppo still appears a modern thriving town in government-held areas and a devastated warzone elsewhere

Syria may not be top of many people's holiday lists for 2017, but its tourism ministry has released a video advertising a side of war-torn city Aleppo that can scarcely be believed.

Drone footage shows the citizens in the Government-held half bathed in glorious sunshine they go about their daily business in the surroundings of grand buildings, fabulous gardens and huge swimming pools.

It is a stark and harrowing comparison to the other half of Aleppo, which is currently being bombed to smithereens by missiles from President Bashar al-Assad as well as from the Russian military.
