Rebel fighters walk beside a pickup truck with a mounted weapon at the Handarat camp's frontline, an area located beside Aleppo Central Prison, during what activists say are clashes with forces loyal to Syria's President Bashar al-Assad, in the north of Aleppo October 3, 2014. The Syrian army has taken control of three villages north of Aleppo, state television said on Friday, in a campaign by forces loyal to Assad that could encircle insurgents in the city. State television said forces moved into al-Mudafah, Handarat and Sifat, including four intersections west of Sifat, killing "many terrorists and destroying dozens of cars".
