Leaders as opposed to president Assad Bashar Al Assad say they havent decided whether to go accusing the United States of adopting unacceptable iranian and russian ideas on solving the conflict. Police in denmark will now be able to seize valuables worth more than 1500 from Asylum Seekers to help cover their housing and food costs. While their cases are being processed. The United Nations condemned the new law saying refugees deserved compassion. Turning now to the heart of the crisis. The brutal civil war in syria and russia joining the fight in the war against isis aligning itself with syrias besieged leader assad. This morning in an abc news exclusive, terry moran is on the front lines with a rare view inside a Russian Armored personnel carrier. Now lies shattered after a battle two weeks ago. Theres almost nothing left here. We walk the streets past the ruins. For three years, rebels against the government of syrian president Bashar Al Assad controlled this strategic village until russian air power arrived. So you came in on the ground and the russians were in the sky . Yes. Yes. Salma is ours. Reporter salma is yours. Its now in its fifth year, a quarter Million People have been killed here. Millions of refugees and in this chaos, isis was born. And now the russians are here. And they are all in. More than 200 russian air strikes boosted the syrian its only been a few days since the is sir s troops took this town and we can still hear mortar fire, small arms fire. Those are the front lines a few miles away. In the threemonths since russia joined the fighting, their forces have turned the tide of battle.

Reporter but the u. S. , britain and others say russia is helping the assad regime a lot more than theyre fighting isis and they accuse their forces of is diskrim nat attacks that killed hundreds of civilians. We saw russians loading socalled dumb bombs, unguided munitions, very inaccurate, lots of potential for collateral damage. When i spoke with the russian general konashenkov, he scornfully dismissed the charge. What civilian facilities are you talking about . These are powerful groups of terrorists. One thing is clear. There is a new reality in the syrian war and it speaks terry moran, abc news, salma, syria. Fascinating. I remember the white house officials when the russians first launched this offensive as terry mentioned saying good luck.
