| Russia censures ‘unprofessional’ UN report on Syria's gas attack |
| 2017-11-03 |
| [PRESSTV] Russia has strongly criticized as "superficial and unprofessional" a recent United Nations ...the Oyster Bay money pit... report blaming the Damascus government for a gas attack in a bad boy-held town in Syria’s northwestern province of Idlib back in April. "We believe that the report turned out to be superficial, unprofessional and amateurish," the head of the Security and Disarmament Department at the Russian Foreign Ministry, Mikhail Ulyanov, said on Thursday, adding, "The mission did their research from a distance, which in itself is a scandal." At least 87 people died in the April 4 purported gas attack on Khan Shaykhun, which Western countries blamed on the Syrian government. Using the incident as a pretext, US warships fired 59 Tomahawk cruise missiles from two warships in the Mediterranean Sea at the Shayrat airfield in Syria’s central province of Homs on April 7. US officials claimed that the suspected Khan Shaykhun attack had been launched from the military site. |
