Syrian regime forces shelled territories in and on the outskirts of Aleppo, said a Britain-based rights group on Sunday.

The shelling targeted Al Zaharaa district on the western side of Aleppo and the southern countryside, with no casualties reported, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights was quoted by Al Hurra TV channel as saying.

The regime army also attacked Harasta in northeastern suburb of Damascus, causing heavy damage, said the rights group, which gathers information from a string of field sources.
