In Syria, the evacuation of rebels and civilians from eastern Aleppo resumed today, after thousands were left stranded on Wednesday amid heavy snowfall and freezing temperatures. Syrian government forces said they expected the last of the evacuees to board buses within the coming hours, leaving the Syrian Army to take total control of the city, which has been devastated by months of heavy bombing and siege warfare. The evacuation resumed after the United Nations General Assembly voted overwhelmingly Wednesday to establish a team to investigate war crimes and human rights abuses committed during the Syrian civil war. Syria and Russia led the opposition to the proposal. We’ll have more on Syria after headlines.
