The Aleppo Artillery School massacre was a sectarian massacre of Syrian Army cadets on 16 June 1979. It was carried out by a handful of members of the Fighting Vanguard led by Adnan Uqlah, without the permission of the Fighting Vanguard's leader, Hisham Jumbaz.[1][2][3] The Muslim Brotherhood in Syria was most likely responsible for the attack and tried to cover it up by condemning it, but the Syrian government decided to conduct a large-scale crackdown against it to prevent any reoccurrence.[4][5]
