Russian jets resumed heavy strikes on rebel-held rural areas of Aleppo province after a pause during a ceasefire to complete the evacuation of rebels from the city. A bombing raid in the rebel-held town of Atareb in western Aleppo countryside killed at least seven refugees who had fled from the city under the evacuation deal, a local resident said. Some people who fled east Aleppo earlier in the war have begun returning to inspect homes in neighborhoods reduced to rubble by years of aerial bombing, which intensified last year when Russia joined the war. The army and pro-government militias are still combing parts of east Aleppo. Rebels accuse the pro-government forces of carrying out summary executions of scores of youths who stayed behind, and say looting has been rampant. The government denies its forces have executed prisoners or looted homes. Thousands of people who were bussed out of Aleppo's rebel-held eastern districts as they fell to government forces have ended up in makeshift camps exposed to severe winter weather. Many left everything behind as they fled under the evacuation deal, under which only mostly elderly people stayed. "We brought a few belongings just to wear.. We lost everything," Omar Sarout, 55, told Reuters by internet message from a makeshift camp for more than 700 people, mostly women and children, run by Turkish and Gulf charities. Yousef Hanbali, a carpenter who fled Aleppo for a makeshift camp in Idlib province, said his family hoped to reach Turkey to find work.
Not once! This is the first time I can say that's ever happened for me. After a couple of days, I usually have to fix and adjust whatever fitted sheet I have on my bed. The packaging is solid. So solid I had to ask the Tannens why they took such care in packaging their sheets. "In our nearly three years in business, we've not heard any customers complain that they miss the traditional plastic packaging that bedding usually comes in," Scott and Missy Tannen told me. "From the very beginning, we felt that our products are unique and special and they should be presented as such. So we use remnant material to create individual cloth bags and make beautiful gift boxes out of recycled board. The packaging is gorgeous, eco-friendly, and worth keeping instead of discarding." ( Here's a video I suggest watching in case your curious about why I'd specifically call out a product's packaging in a review.) So soft right out of the box!
