- The Syrian city of Aleppo, under constant bombardment by air and threatened by both Syrian regime forces and Islamic State militants on the ground, is now one of the most dangerous places in the world. In addition to fighting the enemies at the gates, Aleppo’s rebels have to contend with adversaries within the city, including armed gangs of criminals and pro-Islamic State infiltrators.
While the US government is now ramping up military aid to the ostensibly secular Free Syrian Army, Aleppo's Islamic Front rebels are holding their ground with homemade munitions. Considered too Islamist for support from the West, and too moderate for jihadist fundraisers, the Islamic Front is preparing for the final battle. VICE News followed Islamic Front fighters defending the rebel-held half of the city against overwhelming odds from both the might of the Syrian regime and the resurgent Islamic State.

"Don't bother to aim... God willing, it will hit them."
Wow great military prowess there
Think about it this way, the enemy is already aiming at your position, if you stick your head up for a second too long you're dead.
Fuck aiming, God will do it for them.
Its like the movie wanted where the bullet curverd around stuff.
SaproPhycs Derpy This is not CS:GO BRO :D
+SaproPhycs Derpy but id rather not shoot at a general direction and hope divine intervention will wanted style bend my bullets to hit my enemy
This is why I love vice nobody tells a better story and gets to the front lines like you guys.
Yes true
Yes true
Am I the only one who thinks that Vice is biased.
SHort nigga but my dick Tall How are they biased?
Nate T not covering SAA side of the story maybe. Hopefully they will. From the looks of it they have just interviewed the side that opposes them, and they are biased calling Assad evil etc., that's why it looks like VICE is biased. I bet Assad forces will have their explanation too and call the rebels terrorists and shit, and have perfect grounds for that, as Roussos said, they are killing civillians on the other side too, they just don't have enough ammunition to grade up to Assad. The only difference really. Both are fucking idiots, both have reasons to fight and view the other side as enemy. No 'evils' here.
"Try to whisper, The Regime soldiers are very close, and We don't want to wake them if they are sleeping."
So considerate.
as they proceed to fire that recoiless rifle or rocket whatever it was at them lol
@@peopleplaygroundinventions6317 That's just a syrian alarm clock.
My respect goes to Aris (reporter) and the cameraman. They truly have guts.
***** Who wouldn't?
Looks like vice only gave him level 2 body armor (rated to stop pistol rounds) to go into a war zone. Dude def has balls
@@odin7682 Ah yes because level 4 body armor would happen to stop barrel bombs
@@oryx070 obviously not, I was referring to the sniper fire and AK rounds flying all over Aleppo.
"Why did you bring the reporters if they're not prepared to be martyred?" That must have been very unsettling to hear
This is the vice everyone misses

I love this series keep them coming
eric Stoenescu
what a horrible thing to say
Why? I'm to scared to travel to Detroit by myself so I watch it on here.
eric Stoenescu Haha nice
Vice at its best! Never change!
I have amazing amounts of respect for the reporters risking their lives in situations like these!
VICE you guys are amazing and I hold the utmost respect for you all as journalists. Going into Syria and being with the rebels and being in danger like this is nothing short of ballsy. I'm glad investigative journalism is still alive even if it's not in the mainstream. Keep up the awesome work and know that your work is very much appreciated
You got to watch them though, they go deep off the left side sometimes to the point of pushing narratives.
I have so much respect to the vice reporters putting their lives on the Line to give us a picture of this war zone
Thank you and stay safe
This is real reporting; I am sincerely worried for their safety but am deeply grateful for them bring this to us.
the journalists should better watch them selfs, fsa rats could sell them to ISIS...
assad wouldnt dummy
They were allready in contact with ISIS long ago. Whatever arragements they did with them so they wouldnt kidnap them in the first place are obviosly still keeping them safe.
11:05 their playing angry birds
Aris roussinos will go down in history as one of the worlds greatest war front reporters... Nice Ballz Bro
So sad to see such an old, beautiful city in ruins because of one man's greed for power.
Thank god Barack Obama is gone
@@Marauder1981 syria is saved, o wait
@@chamonix4658 wait what?
5:00 Aleppo newest real life COD map
hell there's even teenagers camping and spamming grenades, maybe COD is more realistic than I give it credit for...
Noble Sublett
lol seriously. They even camp in corners with RPG's. Time for some booster justice, where's LP?
Spamming grenades is BF4.
roflmao
@3:37- I like how the Arab Guerilla with the smirk on his face pointed to the dorky-looking dude named Abu Hassan and said "That's our Secretary of Defense" (something in the back of my mind is telling me that......that is NOT their Secretary of Defense! and that he was just telling a sick joke!)
“Make sure to be quiet & not give away our position” FEW MOMENTS LATER: ALLLLAHHHHHHHH AKBAR!!!!!!!!!!!!
You guys at VICE VICE News are amazing. You're taking huge risks, to educate the world. Your documentaries are Rich of info, and are more interresting than any other I've seen on national television.
I Hope that you Guys one Day will be rewarded for all the Hard work you are doing.
aged like milk
9:56 so thats where Shia Labeouf went.
What a great series Ases so far. Thank you, and keep up the great work.
Amazing documentary, would watch it 24/7. Would be really great if they cover regime side as well.
Just for clarification: the people killed by rebel forces in government held areas are way, way less than the people killed by Assad forces in rebel held areas. The number of people killed by rebel bombing in government held areas in the last two years are less then 40 people, wile the number of people killed by Assad forces in Aleppo is in the thousands.
master millz actually he is right , rebels do strike military positions , but the regime bombard civilians areas , and then accuse the rebels to use civilians as human shields
master millz pbs.twimg.com/media/BxV0Z4fCIAICO5p.jpg:large
True
@@yasserkch4839sounds alot like 🇮🇱
2:53 aww, how nice of them.
They should stop shouting after every shot in every fucking battle. They are giving away their position.
God! Thanks for pointing that out. I thought I was the only one thinking about how strategically retarded it is to do that.
Asaad is fighting a bunch of clowns playing war. His army must be in a terrible state if it can't steam roll this lot.
Bill York Im talking about general gunfire and all the religious warcries. Well, the only religious warcry. In every battle. In every war. From Lebanon to Afghanistan and from Iraq to Syria
Wow your smart you must know a shit ton about war from cod
***** Is the US Army using religious warcries every second? Nope. Is the US Army using religious fanatism throughout their troops? Nope. allahu snackbar!
Thank you for helping the struggling rebels ❤
8:40 dat mono brow.
50 thousand people used to live there, now its a ghost town
"An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind"
08:35 unibrow level 87
mad to think this is now history, I remember it as if it was yesterday
Aris really put himself in some shit to bring us this story. God keep him safe.
Mr. DPs your work is amazing, keep it up please.
Man. A lot of the battle scenes are literally these guys throwing grenades and shooting from walls of their house where they play, eat and watch TV. War is bizarre.
There lays some satisfaction in watching that and knowing that you were on the rights side of the war and all the guys in the video plus Vice news were on the losing side.
Mad respect for Aris he got balls that man.
There is something poetic about Aleppo,something nostalgic...I don't know why.
Keep up the great work!
So messed up seeing the regime come into priceless ancient citys and destroying them. I do agree with the rebels fighting though, they are good with those improvised weapons.
10:08 the pride and glory in that fathers eyes xD
Sometimes I can’t believe that I lived here once, all the destruction made the city unrecognisable I still remember some of the neighbourhoods shown in the video, 10 years ago before I left and never came back since,, The people of Aleppo were super nice, generous and hardworking. Nothing last forever I guess
the father makes a good point. You arent safe anywhere in that area. Does it matter if his kids are there with him? No, i dont think so either.
"-Why did you bring the reporters if they were not prepared to be martyred?"
Fuck, the balls on Vice reporters..
God, I ask in prayer that you help these people find a peaceful end to war, an end to war and a way to bring about that " peace " so that there can be a "new"..help these men and there children both boys and girls study architecture and construction..In the name (or descriptive reference of) GOD I pray, AMEN.
Crazy sad. Good reporting, Vice.
3 words: Balls of steel.
I wish I had this sort of ingenuity, to be able to cobble together functional weapons from hardware store parts and scrap.
A sad sad story indeed. Incredible journalism.
Its not TNT in the Hell Cannon, its Ammonium nitrate mixed with aluminium powder.
VICE NEWS & VICE REPORTER'S are amazing & have balls :)
5:42
Supernatural box
11:40
"Give me a kalashnikov"
not some semi auto shotgun probably from the states :P
6:16 ... so true, videos like this barely got 500k views after the war dragging on for over a decade now and all the foreign jihadists are dead, in kurdish prison or back home. All that is left that no one is caring still and Putin and Bashar continuing to kill off the last resistance aswell. Comparing that this video got half a million views after 8 years of it being published and virtually every news article or video having ukraine in its title, gets atleast a million views, is just crazy like people think the integrity of europe is more threatened by a war in Ukraine then Syria
I still have faith in humanity even after watching these videos.
Damn! The next video is gonna be good.
Oil and blood. The two are never far from each other.
vice news as always best documentaries on earth period
I hope those kids are alright....
amazing coverage, salutations to the reporters risking their lives to make this footage!
while some say its one sided i find it extremely colourful, the views expressed here by average people (of this faction) is not something you will ever hear on the regular news! besides you cant seriously expect a reporter to move across hostile lines in a warzone!? how would that even be possible? its not a videogame!
So sad seeing that little kid being totally disillusioned by his own religion
Im not religious by any means... but may these mens faith bring them victory.. the hardest toughest on earth...may your god bless you love from ireland
I truly despise the people who watch these video for entertainment and not to seek the real truth. I do commend vice news and their team for the quality they put out. At least people have a small idea of whats really going on
Why is Vice not covering the government?
Syrian government typically doesn't allow imbeded Western journalists
because they will be captured ,and surely killed .
rebels are funded by the USA , the Assad regime is funded by russia and iran , enemy's of the USA
usernamefai1 exactly !
Because the government would fuck them up
It's supposed to be a news source representing counter culture...
I like how they ask if the reporters came to be a martyr lol. God bless Assad
I respect this reporter for what he does risking his life and all. But why does he have to whisper most of the time? Also if you take into account that difficult British accent and you don't understand half of what he says in the field. Except maybe the parts narrated afterwords in the editing.
so these people are the future of Syria? Good luck
the rebel fighter made a good point at the end of the video...
Terrifically shot VICE, very well done!
Keep it up!
Doing holes in structural walls isn’t brightest idea because in case there is explosion nearby whole building can easily collapse.
Yeah right, since walking in the sight of enemy sniper is much safer...
I feel bad for both sides. But I hope Assad's government will win so Syria will stay secular and not end up as another Libya.
Vice I's killing me with this 1 episode a day thing
The part at the end 12 minutes and 30 seconds in I totally understood their logic
I would not stand within a hundred feet of one of those grenades
I love my country and our army aso
Vice is awesome... Best Channel on utube
vce keeps it real
8:32 god that kids so fucking scary XD
Hhhhhhhh , they were borne fighters
Nice one vice left us on a cliff hanger
RIP Vice now
soo tired of theses wars ,. those children deserve better ,,,
Vice reporters are crazy. They should be payed with pure gold for this kinda reporting
Those are real mujahideens..may allah bless them and grant them martyrdom
I know this is going to sound very ignorant, but what exactly is going down in Syria? I don't watch news much, and I don't go on the internet much either, I just want a straight answer with maybe a few details, thanks!
ITs a foreign conspiracy to get rid of president bashar al assad
Syrian rebels fighting Syrian government.
Started out as protests, evolved into an uprising and then into a civil war. It's basically a war of attrition right now. It's been going on for about three years, the people fighting are the Govt + plus Hezbollah, Rebels(moderates and extremists), and the Kurds in Iraq and Syria.
TheLerchGaming Thanks for explaining! :)
Just a government giving some of its citizens what they are asking, Martyrdom.
6:24 2014 and the Mosin Nagant 91/30 is still an on the front lines. Amazing rifle and round.
best journalists out is he still doing story's ?
"Why did you bring the reporters, if they are not prepared to be martyred?"
"They're not going to be martyred."
good reporting some of the best on youtube
you guys risk your life for this . thank you for this video vice
4:03 you have all this good military equipment. Yet you use your teeth to open an RPG rocket... you would think someone has bayonet.. or at least a pocket knife
part 3 now'!!!!
1:00 The King in the North!
I will pray for The Sweet sound of Carpenters to return to your land good luck God bless you all
almost 1 thousand dollars for a day of throwing light nets around and chit-chatting is actually pretty awesome
8:32
monobrow kid
Wow the guy is so right about his kid either dying with him or at home… I understand
Creepy sound effects is a nice cover-up for a movie with nothing happening in it.
This reporters beard is marvelous
7:39 That is the poison gas the rebels used in Syria.
Free Syria
Much more should have been done to stop the destruction of this great old city Aleppo, the syrian people deserve much help as in humanitarian efforts sad very sad.
This City was built with love and peace, destroyed by greed of humanity
