the Russian defense Ministry has fixed the airstrike of US-led coalition on homes in the Syrian village of Hassidic near Aleppo. Belgium, which, presumably, belong to the F-16 participated in the RAID, does not admit his guilt. The villagers, who were not fortunate to be in a “gray area” between militants and government forces, can hardly wait for apologies from the West, experts say.
the Russian defense Ministry has fixed Belgian F-16 in the area of impact on residential houses in the vicinity of Aleppo, Syria.
“Wanted as better, and it turned out as always. The Western coalition often it turns out”
“According to information in the Russian Center for reconciliation of the warring parties from the local Council of the city of Afrin, Aleppo province, 18 October at about 3.00 am in the village Hasagic was caused to the air strike, reported the Ministry of defense. – The bombing had destroyed two houses, killed six and injured of varying severity four”. The “planes of Russian air force or the Syrian air force in this area,” said the Agency.
we Add that the village Hassager previously mentioned in the number of settlements shelled Islamist militants on Saturday.
“near the village of Hassidic the night of 18 October performed the tasks in the aircraft of the international coalition,” – said the defense Ministry.
the Belgian Ministry of defense does not recognize the fact of participation of their aircraft in the RAID on Hassidic. “We don’t usually announce where we are, but in those days our planes did not fly over the specified area”, – said the Minister of defense Stephen Vandeput, who was quoted by TASS.
“the photos of the victims will not be difficult to find”
Airstrike on homes in Hassagot commented the official representative of Russian foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova.
“Waiting for statements of the state Department, strongly condemning attacks on civilian targets and killing civilians. I think that photos of the dead is not difficult to find, to play the campaign on CNN,” she said.
the West accuses Russia of aggressive actions in Aleppo, which allegedly killed the local population. The state Department does not delve into reports of the shooting of the militants on the residents of Aleppo.
Note that if the fact of the attack aircraft of the Belgian air force on peace quarters is confirmed, it is not the first instance of “error” of the Western coalition. September 17, coalition aircraft, led by the US attacked the Syrian government forces surrounded the militants of the “Islamic state” near the city of Deir ez-Zor. If you take the broader “peacekeeping” the United States and its allies, we can recall about the attack on the hospital, “Doctors without borders” in the Afghan Kunduz and the air attack was a US ally – Saudi Arabia – during operations in Yemen: in the hospital and the funeral procession.
Summed up the “gray zone”
the Village of Hassidic is the territory of the “gray zone”. They often do not understand who controls what point,” – said in comments the newspaper VIEW chief editor of the magazine “Arsenal Fatherland” Victor murakhovski.

“you Have to understand that this is not a clearly established front line, where both sides of the trenches and so forth,” he said. In the end, “wanted as better, and it turned out as always. Thought to strike at some radical Islamist groups and eventually ended up in the peace settlement, – explained the expert. – Western coalition often it turns out. Moreover, we know examples when they allegedly mistakenly attacked and government forces in Syria who are actually fighting terrorists.”
the interlocutor said that would not be possible to assert that the impact on homes in Hassagot caused specifically.
“Everyone will blame it on Russia”
“I have No doubt that all the media will blame it on Russia. I don’t think that the Pentagon, the US state Department followed by some remorse. Will you investigate – so, between the lines, but without publicity in the world media,” – said in comments the newspaper VIEW political scientist, specialist on the Middle East, Taymūr Dwidar.
the Source said that on Wednesday morning, played live on the channel France 24, where in the report before the news block that said “six dead and four wounded from the attack of the Russian aviation”. The release was accompanied by “evidence of witnesses” and the reference to accommodation in London “the Syrian centre of monitoring behind observance of human rights,” the expert added.
“of course, I was outraged and asked the leading question, do not forget to remind her about the RAID of the Belgian aviation, she said to me, “Apparently by mistake,” and tried to leave the subject. I said, “Apparently by mistake, as well as in Deir ez-Zor – flew there and killed 80 people!” She giggled and moved on to another topic,” – said the source.
“the fruit of the lack of interaction with Russia”
“This kind of shocks is including the fruit of what the Western coalition was unable to establish a real cooperation on the battlefield and in the airspace of Syria with Russia,” – said military expert Viktor murakhovski.
Now, all coordination is to prevent each other about aviation: routes, areas where they work, etc., the source explained. “And it would be necessary from a military point of view and to agree on goals and coordinate strikes against terrorists. In this case, the possibility of errors decreases sharply,” – said the military expert.
murakhovski noted that, even being a military expert, not the analyst may assume that the Western media and political establishment is unlikely to react to coalition strikes on civilians. Suffice it to recall past statements on the erroneous impacts of the coalition and the strikes on Syrian or Russian aviation.
“it Often happens that a priori attacks on humanitarian convoys, for example, attributed to the Syrian air force or the Russian space forces, without proof. At the same time obscure their mistakes, try not to mention it”, – concluded the expert.
