Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu has said that the us-led coalition in Syria failing to rein in Hardline rebels, and the chance of a political settlement was now remote.
He said the coalition was “putting spokes in the wheel” of Russia’s military operation in the country and failing to “act in unison”.
He said rebels were shooting “dozens of peaceful civilians” every day for attempting to use humanitarian corridors set up by Russia out of rebel-held eastern Aleppo, which so far have seen only a trickle of people leave.
He said Russia’s Hmeimim Military base in Syria and its Tartus naval facility also receive regular supplies.
