The US-led anti-terrorist coalition's airstrikes on the Syrian Army may not have been an accident and could be repeated, Russia's envoy to the UN Vitaly Churkin said.
UNITED
NATIONS (Sputnik) — The Syrian Army confirmed earlier in December an
airstrike on Syrian Army positions by US-led coalition aircraft in the
Deir ez-Zor area that killed three and wounded 13 servicemen.
Churkin said that Moscow was not currently planning to raise the issue of coalition strikes on the Syrian army at the UN Security Council.
"Naturally,
there is the suspicion that it was not accidental, that despite all
assurances given to the Syrian government that these strikes would not
target the Syrian government's forces, the strikes could target
government troops from time to time," Churkin told RIA Novosti.
"This will intensify tensions and only complicate the situation in Syria. But let's hope it won't happen," he added.Churkin said that Moscow was not currently planning to raise the issue of coalition strikes on the Syrian army at the UN Security Council.
