Today, Russia condemned America's aggression against Syria and Iraq and called for an emergency meeting of the UN Security Council.

Afghan Voice Agency (AVA): The Russian Foreign Ministry announced: We condemn the US attacks on Syria and Iraq and demand an emergency meeting of the Security Council.

The Russian Foreign Ministry also called the US attack a clear violation of international law.

The Russian Foreign Ministry added: America, by attacking the territory of Syria and Iraq, has ignored the norms of international law and is deliberately trying to drag the biggest countries of the region into conflict.

This is despite the fact that more than 40 people were martyred and injured in Russia's invasion of areas in Iraq and Syria last night.
