Fatah Halab

Fatah Halab (Arabic: فتح حلب, romanized: Fataḥ Ḥalab, lit.

"[8] Since the inter-rebel conflicts, defections and mergers which started in December 2016, Fatah Halab has become largely defunct.

It included some groups which also participated in the Sunni Islamist Ansar al-Sharia operations room, but not others, such as al-Nusra Front.

[14][15] On 13 May 2016, Amnesty International accused the Fatah Halab coalition of "repeated indiscriminate attacks that may amount to war crimes".

[22] A United Nations report in February 2017 came to the conclusion that during the siege of Eastern Aleppo Fatah Halab, after vowing to take revenge on Kurds in Sheikh Maqsoud, intentionally attacked civilian inhabited neighbourhoods of the Kurdish enclave, killing and maiming dozens of civilians, and that these acts constitute the war crime of directing attacks against a civilian population.
