Talk:Al-Madina Souq

September 2012 Fire

I would suggest changing the paragraph related to the destruction of the Souq and other old parts of the city to be either neutral in terms of assigning blame for the destruction to neither side of the conflict or to more specifically mention the mortar and tank shelling which caused the fire as coming from Assad forces and not the Free Syrian Army as is currently stated in the article. The article which is used as a citation for this paragraph is not by any means in depth. I would suggest this telegraph article as a far more comprehensive source of information related to the actual battle and circumstances leading to the destruction of this landmark. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/middleeast/syria/9652009/Death-of-monument-to-human-history-in-Syrias-war-torn-Aleppo.html Thesassypenguin (talk) 12:02, 11 February 2013 (UTC)
