America dismisses Aleppo bombing pause as 'too little, too late'

America has dismissed an eight-hour pause in attacks by Russian and Syrian forces on rebel-held eastern districts of Aleppo as "too little, too late".

Hostilities will be halted for eight hours in the eastern districts of Aleppo, Russia's military announced on Monday, a day on which opposition activists said air strikes killed at least 36 people, including several children, in and around the divided city.
