ALEPPO EVACUATIONS RESUME

Evacuation buses and ambulances have been leaving rebel areas of the Syrian city of Aleppo.

The evacuations had been halted after a deal was threatened by the torching of buses sent to rescue people from government-controlled areas.

Hundreds of people are thought to have left rebel-held areas on Sunday, but thousands more are waiting to leave.

The UN Security Council will vote later on a compromise deal to allow UN monitoring of the evacuation process.

US ambassador to the UN Samantha Power is hopeful it will pass.
