Aleppo Rocket Attack 'Kills At Least 18' In Syria

State media called the attacks "terrorism"
A rocket attack on regime-held areas of the Syrian city of Aleppo has killed at least 18 people, activists have said.
Aleppo is split between government and opposition-held districts and has seen some of worst fighting of the conflict.
Meanwhile, the Syrian government has said President Bashar al-Assad should lead any transitional government agreed at peace talks due in January.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR), a UK-based activist group with links to the opposition, said 18 people had been killed in the Aleppo attack, including 10 government soldiers.
The attack on the Furqan and Meridian neighbourhoods also wounded at least 30 people, the SOHR said.
The organisation said at least five government soldiers were among the dead.
More than two million Syrians have fled the country, according to the UN.
Since the start of unrest in March 2011, more than 100,000 people are estimated to have been killed in the conflict.
In the early months of the uprising Aleppo, Syria's commercial capital, was largely spared the violence.
But the northern city became an battleground in summer 2012, and has since suffered extensive bloodshed.
Two weeks ago activists reported that at least 40 people had died in government air strikes in the city.
