Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.[RIA] US Air Force pilots violated deconfliction protocols in Syria by activating weapons systems when approaching Russian aircraft, said Oleg Gurinov, deputy head of the Center for the Reconciliation of Warring Parties. “Gross violations of the deconflict protocols and the bilateral Memorandum on Flight Safety in Syria by the US-led so-called international coalition continue. The activation of weapons systems by US Air Force pilots is still noted when approaching Russian Aerospace Forces aircraft performing scheduled flights in eastern Syria,” said rear admiral. The day before, the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service reported that the United States was preparing terrorist attacks in crowded places in Syria. According to the agency, this activity is managed from the American military base at Al-Tanf. Dozens of ISIS militants are being trained there , whose ranks are regularly replenished by terrorists released by the Americans from prisons in the occupied northeastern part of Syria. As clarified in the Foreign Intelligence Service , militants carry out sorties in the troubled southern provinces of Suwayda and Deraa. The strategically important highway between Palmyra and the city of Deir ez-Zor is also under threat .
