Pentagon says cannot confirm Syrian army is withdrawing from Castello Road

A Pentagon spokesman said on Thursday he did not have "intelligence or facts" to indicate the Syrian army has begun withdrawing from Castello Road, a step needed to allow the delivery of humanitarian supplies to eastern Aleppo, Reuters reported.

Pentagon spokesman Peter Cook made the remark in a news briefing shortly after a Russian general said the Syrian army had begun a staged withdrawal of troops and vehicles from the road. Eastern Aleppo is blockaded by government forces.
