Russia and Syria on Friday came under strong criticisms from western countries in the UN Security Council over the killing of 33 Turkish soldiers

According to reports, the soldiers died in an attack by Russia-backed Syrian government forces in the northwestern province of Idlib.

Describing the attack as senseless and barbaric, Ms Craft said Turkey had her country’s support to “respond in self-defence’’ to the “unjustified attack.” Mr Jun recalled a report by UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres that terrorists were targeting civilians, journalists and humanitarian workers in Idlib.

Mr Ja’afari maintained that the Syrian government would continue to combat terrorism to “liberate every inch of our territories whether through military operations or local reconciliations.” Nebenzya said Russian and Turkish forces on the ground in Syria were constantly in touch, sharing coordinates of troop positions and conveying same to Syrian forces in real time.
