The United Nations envoy to Syria has proposed a way to bring an end to the two years of fighting in Aleppo. The northern city is the biggest in the country and was occupied by anti-government rebels in 2012.

But there's another battle on the horizon - Aleppo is a key interest for Islamic State, which is drawing closer - as Maria Finoshina reports from the city.
