‘US strike on soldiers was intentional – not an error’

Author: app/afp

NEW YORK: Syria’s Foreign Minister Walid Muallem told the United Nations on Saturday that a US-led coalition air strike on Syrian soldiers a week ago was intentional – rejecting US claims that it was a mistake.

“The Syrian government holds the US fully responsible for this aggression because the facts show that it was an intentional attack – and not an error – even if the US claims otherwise,” Muallem told the IN General Assembly.
