Pro-government forces repeatedly struck medical facilities in rebel-held neighborhoods in their push to expel the opposition from Aleppo this year. In November, the UN said it believed there were no more functioning medical facilities in the eastern part of the city.
Wednesday’s bus movements came after evacuations had been suspended for 24 hours, one of several snags and delays since the first bus convoys left the city last week.
Frequent disagreements have erupted between the rebels and the government, as well as among rebel groups, over compliance with a wider deal that also includes evacuations from two rebel-besieged villages, Foua and Kfarya.
The ICRC said about 750 people have been bused out of the villages, leaving hundreds more to be evacuated.
Meanwhile, it was unclear if any UN observers were on the ground in eastern Aleppo on Wednesday — two days after a UN Security Council resolution approved their urgent deployment.
