In the Syrian city of Aleppo, experts have begun work to restore the medieval citadel. The architectural monument was significantly damaged during shelling by militants in 2012-2016. The citizens of Syria are engaged in the restoration of the citadel, and Russian specialists also contribute. Employees of the Institute for the History of Material Culture of the Russian Academy of Sciences examined the objects to create their 3D models. The first fortifications on the territory of Aleppo date back to the 10th century, but some buildings already existed in the second millennium BC. NS.
