Michael Fallon, UK defence secretary claims Assad is barrel-bombing his own civilians, their children, his own cities and villages

According to an article in the britsish Guardian,  Michael Fallon, UK defence secretary said: “Russia is making a very serious situation in Syria much more dangerous. We will be calling on Russia specifically to stop propping up the Assad regime, to use their influence constructively to stop Assad bombing his own civilians and themselves to avoid the use of unguided munitions in areas that are not being controlled by Isil [Isis].”

“If Russia wants to help here, the single most helpful thing they can do is use their influence on Assad to stop barrel-bombing his own civilians, their children, his own cities and villages. That’s how Russia could help to resolve this conflict.”
