He said it in a comment on the claim by the Chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff, Gen Joseph Dunford who told members of a Senate committee the US military did not have proof to support the suppositions that the convoy had been bombed by Russian warplanes.
"This hasn't been concluded but my judgment would be they did it," Gen Dunford said.
"Unlike the Chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff, we do have facts or the information from air data recorders on the situation in the Aleppo zone on September 19," he said. "And this information proves very unambiguously a US attack drone Predator from Incirlik airbase was present in the zone of location of the humanitarian convoy near the town of Urum al-Kurba."
"What the Chairman of the Chiefs of Staff and the U.S. Secretary of Defense have at their disposal - and it's clear to everyone now - is their personal opinions and fear for a yet another error or a purported provocation," Gen Konashenkov said.
"Generally speaking, if the US Army plans its combat operations and makes reports to the President on the basis of personal opinions instead of verified intelligence data, is it a surprise then that the US military regularly make the blunders, which claim the lives of hundreds of innocent people around the world?" he said.
The ABC (which the ruling conservative government keeps describing as a left-wing organization) is parroting the western narrative.
They showed pictures of the remains of an alleged Russian bomb in the middle of a warehouse. Suspicious, most certainly, but it wouldn't be difficult to plant such a thing given the amount of bombs the Russian Aerospace Forces have dumped on the beautifully democratic opposition fighters.
And they showed a couple of videos from 'local residents', a couple of very well-fed looking males, declaring they undoubtedly heard SAAF helicopters dropping barrel bombs. Which is also suspicious, since it is my understanding there are no local residents left in Uman-Al-Kubar, it was well and truly abandoned by the locals very early on in the Syrian conflict. Also that the SAAF does not operate at night, they don't have the capability.
So who do you believe? I guess it's more up to your own desires and belief system.
