Video appears to show children fleeing sniper firepublished at 13:30 Greenwich Mean Time 16 December 2016
Dramatic video footage of children apparently fleeing sniper fire in east Aleppo has appeared on several US and UK news outlets.
The footage, recorded earlier this week by an activist and videographer in Aleppo, seems to show children flee from an evacuee ambulance under the sound of sniper fire, before taking shelter in a ruined building.
The BBC has not independently verified the footage.
