Moscow has called an urgent UN Security Council meeting after US-led coalition airstrikes hit Syrian forces, killing 62 soldiers and wounding 100 more, the Russian Foreign Ministry said.
The Foreign Ministry has also demanded full and detailed explanation from Washington over the incident in Dier al-Zor, in which 62 Syrian troops were killed and over 100 injured.
Moscow stressed that it was concerned by the US airstrike targeting the Syrian army units which had been destroying the Islamic State.
The ministry added that the Russian side had never been notified of US plans to carry out bombings in the Dier al Zor area.
Earlier on Saturday Russia's Defence Ministry said that four strikes against Syrian positions had been delivered by US-led coalition aircraft - two F-16 jet fighters and two A-10 support aircraft.
The Syrian military called the bombing a "serious and blatant aggression" against Syrian forces, and said it was "conclusive evidence" that the US and its allies support IS militants.
US Central Command later issued a statement, saying that the US-led "coalition would not intentionally strike a known Syrian military unit." It promised to look into the incident.
“seems”?
Obama is on the Jihad side.

“Obama seems to be on ISIS side.”
He always has been. They are our proxies. The entire ‘Arab Spring’ was intended to advance this slaughter. If the Western leaders responsible for this do not face warcrimes tribunals, the Nuremberg trials are reduced to a snit over popularity and success.
Isn’t it great having a wonderful potus? /s
teamobama has always been on teamcaliphate side.
There are no good guys here. We should remove all US forces from the zone. Stop supplying weapons to people who kill Kurds and Christians.

Well hell, don't call us dogs and infidels then.
Putin pulling the rug out from under Obama. Again.
Have fun at the UN, Sparky.
SEEMS?
Where’s Code Pink and all the other anti-war jerks at? When a missile so much as grazed the side of a Mosque when Bush was President, the press was all over his ass.
FU barry.
Obama & Hillary HAVE BEEN SUPPORTING ISIS all along.....that’s why the GOPe Congress didn’t really investigate Benghazi & the murder of Ambassador Stevens...
I wonder if Obama’s Turkish Islamist forces in Syria called in the airstrikes and lied by claiming they were ISIS targets. Neither Obama or the Islamist Turks are friends of America.
Time for the military to oust traitor and domestic enemy OBuggery before we get WW3.
That’s the key word concept, “the press”
