9:44Now PlayingAs Syria's war enters its fifth year, VICE News filmmaker Medyan Dairieh travelled to the shattered northern city of Aleppo, where fighters from the US-backed moderate rebel group Jaish al-Mujahideen are still holding out against government forces in the city's western half and Islamic State fighters in the eastern countryside.
