US covering up breaches of Syria ceasefire sez Rooshuns
That's one small part of the story: the bigger part is that Pencilneck is violating the ceasefire... | Russia accused the US of covering up opposition violations in Syria on Thursday as the three-day old ceasefire came under increasing strain.
The Russian defence ministry said that Syrian regime forces had pulled back from the Castello road, a key access route into Aleppo, but that opposition groups had not withdrawn.
The Russian foreign ministry also complained of opposition shelling. “Only the Syrian army has been observing the ceasefire regime, while the US-led ‘moderate opposition’ has been increasing the number of shellings of residential quarters,” the ministry statement said. “Moreover, it appears that the ‘verbal curtain’ of Washington is aimed at hiding the non-fulfilment of the US obligations.”
