We are not clear how he got that information, we are not clear whether it is true, it certainly hasnt been verified yet. One of the things he said was that two russian generals had been badly injured in the attack.

We are expecting russias Foreign Minister to speak in the next hour or so in new york where he has been at the United Nations general assembly. Do you think he will comment on this strike .
