Aleppo’s only water source is from the water treatment plants that supply water from lake Assad. Occupy the water treatment plants and cut off water and also the electricity to Aleppo. Use scramblers to disrupt satellite phone, cell phone and computers from Aleppo.
The Syrian army’s best bet is to use it’s infantry and tanks to seal off escape exits. Then cut of water and electricity and pound the foreign terrorists with artillery and helicopter gunships. Reduce the terrorists by bombing and starvation. The civilians need to leave now or they will suffer the same fate as the foreign terroists. I understand that the Al Qaida thugs are forcing people to stay and trying to hijack the young men into fighting for them.
Meantime invite the Russians to land marines at the naval base they rent from Syria to safeguard the ports and allow Russian fighter wings to occupy the Syrian airports. This will keep the air ports in government hands.
