YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

The most powerful rebel group in Syria has explained in its first interview with British television how it masterminded the ending of the siege of Aleppo.

The Jabhat Fatah al Sham (JFS) leadership has told Sky News its decision to join forces with the other opposition groups in Syria is a ‘game-changer’.

The group was formerly known as Al Nusra and had links with Al Qaeda before changing its name a few weeks ago and severing links with the terror group. That manoeuvre appears to have made an immediate impact on the ground

Sky News' Alex Crawford spoke to Mostafa Mahamed, Director of Foreign Media Relations for JFS.
