Russia says the attacks are an incident that needs to be taken up by the UN Security Council, according to Russia’s foreign ministry spokeswoman.
“It is obvious that the air strikes are deliberately designed to further inflame the conflict. By attacking, almost without pause, the facilities of allegedly pro-Iranian groups in Iraq and Syria, the United States are purposefully trying to drive the largest countries in the region into conflict,” said in a statement.
Russia foreign ministry also said the US was “sowing chaos and destruction” in the Middle East.
