Moscow, February 11 (RHC)-- Russian Defense Ministry spokesman Igor Konashenkov told reporters in Moscow on Thursday that U.S. warplanes had flown from Turkey to hit targets inside Aleppo. The statement came after the Pentagon accused Russian and Syrian government forces of destroying two main hospitals in Aleppo in air raids.
The Russian defense ministry spokesman said that Russian warplanes only hit targets some 20 km from the city.
The U.S. has been carrying out airstrikes inside Syria since September 2014 without any authorization from the Syrian government or a United Nations mandate.
