		</div><p>Russia says that all women and children have been taken out of eastern Aleppo and that a final sweep by the Syrian military is under way to clear out the last remaining rebels in the city.</p>
<p>A statement on Friday from the Russian military&#8217;s Centre for Reconciliation in Syria said the evacuations have been &#8220;completed&#8221;. It came shortly after the Syrian government said it was suspending the evacuations because a convoy leaving Aleppo was fired on by the rebels.</p>
<p>The UN and international aid agencies insist there are still people in eastern Aleppo waiting to be evacuated.</p>
<p>Russia said that more than 9,500 people, including more than 4,500 rebels and 337 wounded, have been taken out of the rebel-held districts in eastern Aleppo.</p>
<p>The Russian military also says some die-hard militants have stayed behind and are firing on the Syrian government troops.</p>
<p>The UN health agency&#8217;s top official in Syria says negotiations are under way in hopes of resuming evacuations from rebel-held parts of eastern Aleppo.</p>
<p>Elizabeth Hoff, the Syria representative for the World Health Organisation, says that the agency knows <i>&#8220;there are a large number of women and children, and there are others, who are still inside and want to get out&#8221;.</i></p>
<p>She spoke by phone from government-controlled western Aleppo, after Russia&#8217;s military claimed that all women and children had been taken out of eastern Aleppo during evacuations that began a day earlier involving WHO help.</p>
<p>Ms Hoff says that &#8220;negotiations are ongoing&#8221; through the office of the UN envoy for Syria to try to restart the evacuations.</p>
<p>She says has no indication that the evacuations have been completed.</p>
