Russia Denies Involvement in Toxic Gas Attack on Women and Children in Syria



Russia Denies Involvement in Syrian Gas Attacks


Russia is denying claims from Syrian rebels and human rights groups that it was behind a reported chlorine gas attack Tuesday in the same area where a Russian helicopter was shot down a day before, according to a Russian state media report.

"I don’t have information; we don’t have information about how the operation is proceeding," Russia's TASS news agency reports Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov as saying. "It is very hard to react to such information releases: it is not always clear what they are based on, what their sources are and so on."
