It wasn’t immediately clear if there have been any harms. The Obama administration has repeatedly vetoed past requests from the rebels, as well as their Turkish and Saudi allies, for the delivery of antiaircraft missiles, out of concerns that they could fall into extremist hands.

They make little or no attempt to identify these alleged non-ISIS targets, however.

He claimed that they “say they are fighting terrorism but do not demonstrate results”.

“The global community, especially large countries with much influence, must fully recognize the critical, urgent necessity to reach a political solution to the Syria issue”, it said.

Russian Federation insists it is targeting the Islamic State group and other “terrorists”.

In his conversations with Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, Kerry said, there has been an understanding that Russia’s actions will be considered “farce” if they are perceived as helping Assad.

The Kremlin’s stated goal in Syria is to target the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria, though US officials have said most of Russia’s airstrikes have targeted rebels who opposed Syrian President Bashar Assad.

“Yet Warren called Russian airstrikes in Syria reckless and indiscriminate as well as irresponsible”.

Within just weeks of Austin’s startling admission, a second group of US-trained and armed rebels was sent back into Syria, where they promptly surrendered their US-supplied vehicles and weapons to Syria’s Al Qaeda affiliate, the al-Nusra Front.

“It’s allowed for the holder of the card to cross the Army’s checkpoints safely, the Syrian Army will provide the food and medical aid for the holders of the card, join forces together with the Syrian Army, leave the regions that observe battles for the security”, the fliers said, as stated by the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.

Britain’s defense attaché in Moscow, summoned to the Kremlin for an explanation, denied the report, while reiterating London’s opposition to Russia’s air war in Syria. Its only reliable naval port on the Mediterranean Sea is there – Tartus. Assad’s refusal to consider such a route played no small role in Qatar’s pouring tens of billions of dollars in arms and funds into the Syrian civil war.

Russian Federation also does not consider regime change, wars and revolutions bring democracy and stability. The US-led coalition has failed to destroy IS.

“We have seen where the Russians are flying a pattern… where they come over and take a quick look at the drones”.
