Aleppo Attacks Kill Three, SDF and Syria Blame Each Other
In the city of Aleppo, Syria, three people were killed, and several others were hurt in some attacks.
The Syrian government and the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) are blaming each other for what happened.
The SDF says the government's forces did it, while the government says the SDF did it.
This fight is happening because the two sides can't agree on how to work together.
They had a meeting recently to try to make a deal, but they are still arguing and not making progress.
The SDF doesn't want to give up the control they have, and the government wants them to join their army.
If they can't agree, it could lead to more fighting and make the situation in Syria even worse.
