US airstrikes on Syrian troops were ‘intentional,’ lasted nearly 1 hour – Assad to @AP
This is an important piece. This really was a game changing incident that is having serious repercussions now.
"It was not an accident by one airplane; it was four airplanes which kept attacking the position of the Syrian troops for nearly one hour or maybe a little bit more than one hour," Assad told AP, adding they were attacking a large area that "constituted of many hills" adjacent to where the Syrian troops were stationed.
"The ISIS troops attacked at the very same time as the American strike. How could they know that America was going to attack that position in order to gather their militants right away and attack it one hour after the strike. It was definitely intentional and not unintentional".

WERE THEY WILLING TO BLAME ISRAEL AND/OR TURKEY IF NOBODY BELIEVED RUSSIA DID IT?
