Bombing of the innocents: Russian jets pound heavily populated civilian areas as Cameron savages Putin for backing 'butcher Assad'
Dramatic eyewitness testimony of the devastating Russian air strikes on Syrian civilians has been obtained by The Mail on Sunday, as we reveal President Putin has been steadily boosting his naval firepower in the region.
Our revelations came as David Cameron condemned Russia for aiding ‘the butcher’ Assad and ‘making the situation worse’.
‘It’s absolutely clear that Russia is not discriminating between Isil [IS] and the legitimate Syrian opposition groups and, as a result, they are actually backing the butcher Assad and helping him,’ he said.
Rightly, they [Russia] have been condemned across the Arab world for what they have done.’
Mr Cameron’s comments came a day after Defence Secretary Michael Fallon accused Russia of killing civilians, saying only one in 20 attacks so far was on an IS target.
Last night a Syrian rebel group said 39 civilians had been killed in the first three days of the Russian air campaign, which their defence ministry said had totalled 60 sorties since Wednesday.
