More than a week of fighting in and around Syria’s second city has killed more than 250 civilians.

But relative quiet in the city’s rebel-held east on Monday morning allowed some residents to venture out into the streets, AFP’s correspondent there said, with some even opening up shops.
Heavy air strikes had hit the area hours earlier, he said, but there were no immediate reports of casualties.
Several neighbourhoods, including the heavily populated Bustan al-Qasr district, were struck overnight. It was not clear if Syrian or Russian jets carried out the raids on the rebel-held area.
