The US military does not have data proving that Russian planes have attacked civilian tankers, reports RIA News a statement by the representative of the headquarters of the Western coalition Stephen Warren



On the eve of the Western media accused the Russian military in the destruction of a number of civilian fuel facilities.

“We have seen these messages, but we are not ready to confirm this for the time being,” said the colonel.

He recalled that a month ago, the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation published a video with air strikes on tankers. “I have not tracked any new such attacks since that time,” Warren noted.

Earlier, the Chief of the General Staff of the Russian Armed Forces, Valery Gerasimov, noted that “thanks to the strikes of the Russian Aerospace Forces on the positions of the IG, the possibilities of militants for the illegal export of energy carriers were significantly reduced.” According to him, “as a result of the actions of the VKS, some elements of the infrastructure were destroyed, including two columns of tankers”.

    There are only tankers transporting oil to the Turks from the territory of Daesh controlled.
    With the money they receive, they get weapons and continue to kill everyone who is against them.
    Therefore: - the destruction of columns with oil and other energy carriers will continue. A blow to the columns - a blow to DAISH!

          Are Turkish tankers carrying oil from Syria from ISIS-controlled territories are civilians?
          Then yes, they smash them and burn our VKS.
          What without hiding is reported to all those interested.
          And I think the practice of destroying such "civilian" oil tankers will continue.

      - hit on LIH. On IGif you like. "daish" is an invention of obscurantists and invented exclusively for Russian domestic use. And the tankers must be destroyed, yes. Maybe at least the government will raise oil prices by air strikes and will not always whine about the terrible (and created by them) budget deficit.

    Why the Pentagon could not prove the destruction of civilian objects in Syria of the Russian air forces ...
    But because ...
    In the Moscow region, an attempt was made to illegally sell to Ukraine engines of decommissioned aircraft guided missiles with the theft of state funds allocated for the disposal of these weapons. This was stated by the prosecutor of the region Alexei Zakharov, reports TASS.
    The scheme was discovered when checking the execution of the state contract for the disposal of aircraft guided missiles.
    “It was established that the employees of one of the federal state-owned enterprises, the engines of these missiles, instead of their disposal, were prepared for sale and transportation to a buyer located in Ukraine,” Zakharov said.
    He noted that part of the funds received as payment for engines were cashed and withdrawn from legal circulation through the accounts of fictitious organizations.
    The amount of damage caused to the state is estimated by the prosecutor's office at least 62 million rubles. A criminal case has been initiated and is being investigated on this fact.
    This scam could inflict a tremendous political blow on Russia’s foreign arena ...
    I remember such a precedent ... when Saakashvili waved rusty debris from a rocket standing at a crater in some Georgian village claiming that this was the business of aircraft from Russia ... then neighing at him ... asking what dump he dug up the fragments from.

    And also very interesting.
    If columns of cars carrying oil move on the ground, and the road passes through the territory controlled by Daesh, are they peaceful carriers or not?
