Russian Envoy Slams Fake Reports on 'Indiscriminate Syrian Strikes' in Idlib
07:21 GMT 22.11.2022 (Updated: 16:47 GMT 08.01.2023) ASTANA (Sputnik) - The allegation that the Syrian armed forces supported by Russia conducted indiscriminate strikes in the northwestern city of Idlib are false, as every strike proceeds only after thorough target verification, Russian special presidential envoy for Syria Alexander Lavrentyev said on Tuesday.
"I must note the flow of false information in Western media about the Syrian armed forces, with Russia's support, having launched a series of indiscriminate strikes on the territory of Idlib. This is false information. All strikes are carried after triple verification of targets," Lavrentyev said at the beginning of the 19th round of talks on the Syrian settlement in Astana.
The official specified that strikes target the headquarters of militants to prevent "provocative actions" on their part.
