Aleppo. A sinking city. Aleppo, una ciudad que se hunde

My digital intervention on a picture of the medieval city of Aleppo. The original picture was downloaded from worldtv.com

¨A huge fire has destroyed parts of the medieval souks in Aleppo, Syria, following raging battles between rebels and government troops.

The city is a Unesco world heritage site and the labyrinth of narrow alleys and shops was once a major tourist attraction and is one of Syria's largest commercial hubs.

Over the past two months, the city, home to 2.5 million people, has become a focus of the insurgency against Bashar al-Assad's regime, with near daily fighting and shelling.¨
