"The filming of these fakes has already taken place in some Syrian districts," Nebenzya said. "Notably, the organizers forced the Syrians abducted previously in Idlib and Aleppo Governorates to take part in the filming."
"Also, we have the data suggesting that Jabhat al-Nusra [a terrorist grouping outlawed in Russia by a ruling of the Supreme Court - TASS] handed barrels with chlorine to Jaysh al-Izza grouping in Lataminah and Kafr Zita," Nebenzya said. "Once again, we'd like to call attention to the fact. We've warned about it many a time."
"We can see full well some of our partners are using Syria as a bridgehead for triggering a far more serious and dangerous conflict with more far-reaching consequences in the entire region," the ambassador said. "In the light of it, we'd like to call once again for real collective efforts on all the conflict situations in the region and particularly in struggle with terrorism and for giving up the attempts to solve Syria's problems behind its back.".
"When people die, especially in such tragic circumstances, it is always a tragedy, a tragedy for us all, for the whole country and for the families of our dead friends.

Most of Puerto Rico still does not have power, and its inhabitants are struggling with shortages in food, water, and essential supplies. However, yesterday Marin made the shocking discovery that a sizable portion of United States aid to Puerto Rico is going to waste before it ever reaches the hurricane victims.
The video shows countless unopened boxes full of ready-to-eat meals in a dumpster, presumably thrown away by Puerto Rican officials. The video was shot in Patillas, a city on the island's southeastern coast.
This bombshell revelation appears to confirm GotNews' earlier reporting on a Puerto Rican police officer who claimed elected officials, including Carmen Yulin Cruz, the anti-Trump Mayor of San Juan, are deliberately sabotaging hurricane relief efforts for political reasons.
