The popular uprising that began over five years ago is now a war that is laying waste large areas of Syria. The war has killed hundreds of thousands of civilians, thousands are in prison, while liberties are repressed by all sides (see here and here). This conflict has seen the involvement of many imperialist and reactionary forces (see here and here) with resistance forces badly outgunned. The recent battles in and around Aleppo have only served to increase the misery for working class communities. Nevertheless, popular resistance continues amid the ruins of war, whether in documenting the war, rescuing the injured, or staging demonstrations. Without greater international solidarity to the working class resistance in Syria, the conflict will continue to create misery for millions of people in and around Syria.
