US officials say Putin bombed CIA-backed groups, civilians; Russia calls it a ‘groundless’ rumor

Russia responded to accusations it targeted non-ISIS fighters in Syria on Wednesday by calling the reports groundless rumors.

 

From Fox News: 

Russia’s first airstrikes in Syria Wednesday targeted areas held by rebels receiving arms, funding, and training from the CIA and killed dozens of civilians, according to U.S. officials and published reports.

The Syrian National Council, a group opposed to Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, told Sky News that at least 36 people had been killed by airstrikes in the western city of Homs, including five children. Khaled Khoja, the SNC’s leader, told Sky that none of the four areas targeted by Russian planes Wednesday contained ISIS fighters and called Moscow’s claim that it was helping the U.S.-led coalition defeat the terror group “baseless.”
