Syrias war took another ominous turn when russian airplanes veered into turkish air space. Russian jets began bombing syria to help prop up the assad dictatorship. Now two of the Worlds Largest air forces are fighting on different sides and keeping them separated is the job of u. S. Commanders in the persian gulf. David martin has a rare look. Reporter scott, this is the nerve center for the air campaign against isis, and through these windows, the operations floor where all the missions are being tracked, including the ones over syria where russian aircraft are also operating. You can see it on the screen, the yellow aircraft the russian, the green, mesh. American. U. S. Pilots out of turkey first picked up the russian planes on radar. The russians closed to within 20 miles, at which point the american pilots could visually identify them on their targeting cameras. Lieutenant general charles brown, commander of the air campaign, says the russians have come even closer than that to his unmanned drones. The closest has been within a handful of miles into some of our remotely piloted aircraft, but for our manned aircraft, not closer than about 20 miles is about the closest weve seen. Reporter brown says he intends to work around the russians. Could they just crowd you out of syria . No, i dont think so. Were up a lot more often than they, are so if we do have the move around for separation, its for a small period of time compared to the hours and hours that were airborne over iraq and syria. Reporter despite the russian, general brown says he intends to increase strikes against isis sanctuaries in syria. Many of those missions will be flown by the crews of these b1 bombers, who now, scott, must also avoid runins with the russians. Pelley david martin reporting from qatar. David, thanks. That base also handles the air war in afghanistan, where over the weekend a u. S. Air strike destroyed a hospital killing 22 civilians. The top u. S. General in afghanistan said today those responsible will be accountable and Mark Phillips is following this. Reporter two days after the u. S. Air strike that destroyed this hospital in afghanistan, the pentagon has now changed its story on how and why the attack happened. It was not, as was first said, called in by u. S. Forces under threat while working with Afghan Government troops trying to retake kunduz from the taliban. The air strike was called in, u. S. General John Campbell said, but the afghans themselves. Reporter Afghan Forces advised they were taking fire from enemy positions and asked for air support from u. S. Forces. An air strike was then called to eliminate the taliban threat and several civilians were accidentally struck. Reporter by several he means 22, ten patients and 12 staff members, killed by the devastating firepower of an ac130 gunship like this one. The attack went on for an hour. The hospital is run by the International Medical Charity Doctors without borders, which bravely operates in many of the worlds war zones. And it insists it has specifically informed both u. S. And afghan authorities of the hospitals location. As for the kabul governments claim that the taliban were firing from around the hospital compound, the groups executive director, Vickie Hawkins insists that was not the case. The comments coming from the Afghan Government are absolutely outrageous. I mean, they are too an extent justifying the destruction of a fully functioning hospital. Reporter the pentagon, nato and the afghans themselveses are now conducting investigations. Doctors without borders says the only credible inquiry must be international and independent. Beyond the tragedy, the air strike raises questions about how u. S. Air power in afghanistan is controlled, about the rules of engagement that are used and, scott, whether designated areas like hospitals can become free fire zones.
