		</div><p>Russian foreign minister Sergey Lavrov has warned Syrian rebels in Aleppo that they will be wiped out unless they agree to stop fighting and quit the besieged city.</p>
<p>Mr Lavrov said that <i>&#8220;those who refuse to leave nicely will be destroyed&#8221;,</i> adding: <i>&#8220;There is no other way.&#8221;</i></p>
<p>Mr Lavrov also lamented what he described as attempts by the United States to obtain a pause in the fighting in Aleppo to allow rebels to re-arm and re-supply.</p>
<p>He said that <i>&#8220;serious conversations with our American partners are not working&#8221;.</i></p>
<p>Syrian government forces are closely backed by Russian air power in the Middle East country&#8217;s civil war.</p>
<p>Government forces recently launched a new push to retake rebel-held eastern Aleppo neighbourhoods and seized large parts of the city.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, a spokesman for Russian President Vladimir Putin said the Kremlin regrets a &#8220;more than modest&#8221; reaction by the international community following the deadly attack on a Russian military hospital in Aleppo on Monday.</p>
<p>Dmitry Peskov singled out the United States for what he said was a muted reaction to the <i>&#8220;tragedy&#8221;</i> in the Syrian city. Two Russian nurses were killed in the attack.</p>
<p>Russian officials have said the artillery attack was deliberately planned and suggested that the coordinates of the hospital were supplied to rebels in Aleppo by a foreign power.</p>
<p>Russia&#8217;s defence ministry said a statement from the International Red Cross about the incident was <i>&#8220;cynical&#8221;</i> and showed the organisation was <i>&#8220;indifferent to the murder of Russian medics in Aleppo&#8221;.</i></p>
<p>The Syrian government said it rejects any ceasefire for Aleppo unless it includes the departure of all rebels from the eastern part of the city.</p>
<p>Syria&#8217;s foreign ministry said in a statement carried on the state SANA news agency that the government will not allow the rebels a chance to <i>&#8220;regroup and repeat their crimes&#8221;</i> in the divided city.</p>
<p>The statement comes a day after Russia and China blocked a draft resolution at the UN Security Council demanding a seven-day truce in Aleppo.</p>
<p>The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said rebel shelling of Aleppo&#8217;s government-held districts killed 81 civilians in the past three weeks. The government&#8217;s offensive to take eastern Aleppo killed 341 civilians over the same period and displaced tens of thousands over the past week.</p>
