Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Thursday that the Russian air force would continue its support of the Syrian armed forces.
He also urged Washington to deliver on a pledge to separate moderate Syrian opposition fighters from "terrorists".
US Secretary of State John Kerry warned the US was "on the verge" of suspending talks with Russia over Syria.

“Don’t you think that such ventriloquism about ‘body bags,’ ‘terrorist attacks in Russian cities’ and ‘loss of aircraft,’ sounds more like a ‘get ’em’ command, rather than a diplomatic comment?” Zakharova concluded.

The United States warned Thursday that it is on the brink of ending talks with Russia over the assault on Aleppo, where the United Nations says a humanitarian catastrophe is unfolding unlike any witnessed so far in Syria's brutal five-year war.
Air strikes pounded Aleppo province while at least 11 civilians, including seven children, died during attacks on the city of Idlib, nearby Jarjanaz and central Hama province, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said.
With no let-up in the military campaign, US Secretary of State John Kerry admitted that months of diplomacy to end the war had hit a dead-end.

The US invaded Iraq, illegally and immorally, and has the nerve to criticize Russia
Russia was invited by a sovereign country to help it defend against a terrorist led invasion which was aided and abetted by the US in a sinister coalition to intervene in Syria for selfish geopolitical and economic reasons.
The Hell with America…the lying hypocritical savages

The insurgents can't field a regular army, they are guerrilla fighters, using the city to hide in and purposefully hiding amongst civilian populations to force the Syrian gvernemtdn and Russians to shoot at their own infrastructure and people to dislodge them. Now who's the assholes?
like member said, the Russian are operating at the invitation of the Syrian government, unlike the US special forces sneaking around illegally, who train and equip terrorists to overthrow a sovereign state.
Who's the even bigger assholes?

Only the insurgents are intentionally targeting civilians or using them as human shields, either / or. The killing of hundreds of thousands of civilians and the displacement of millions more is directly the fault of the US gubment and EU under NATO's banner. That came first. Finally the Russians started to help the Syrians cut the cancer out of the Syrian country. They're allies. I think they showed enormous restraint.
They know however, that NATO 'intervention' and 'humanitarian' causes produced the hellhole that is libya, can't get fooled again.

You being serious? Britain along with USA have forward operating bases in Turkey and Jordan to funnel in jihadis/mercenaries from around the world, train them with weapons, then send them in through the back door into Syria to go murder innocent human beings including a holocaust of Middle Eastern Christians. It's sick and as bad as the Nazis

Yeah. Assad gassing his own people and dropping barrel bombs which kill indescriminantly are OK though, right?
Just because he is the so-called legitimate ruler?
Assad did not order Syria chemical weapons attack, says German press
OPCW report: rebels used chemical weapons – not Assad
The Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) has confirmed the traces of the sarin gas used in Syria are not linked with the Syrian government's former stockpile of chemical weapons. The report corroborates the Syrian government's assertions that the faction responsible for the chemical attack, as well as 11 other instances of chemical weapons use, was the Syrian opposition.
The report also substantiates last month's claims from Ahmed al-Gaddafi al-Qahsi, cousin of Muammar Gaddafi, who said that the chemical weapons used in the incident had been stolen from Libya and later smuggled into Syria via Turkey by militants.
