HMEYMIM (Sputnik) — Earlier, some mainstream media outlets reported that one of the convoys leaving Aleppo with 950 militants and their families had to return to the city.
"All 15 convoys with militants and their families, formed by the Russian reconciliation center for evacuation from eastern Aleppo safely reached the final point of their route in the Al-Rashidin 4 sector. The information that allegedly one of the convoys with 950 militants and their families returned to the city is absolutely untrue," the center said in a statement.
Earlier reports by the center said that overall, more than 9,500 people had been evacuated from eastern Aleppo for the time of the operation to take militants and their families out of the city, adding that all those who wanted to leave Eastern Aleppo did so in the past 24 hours.
