U.S. calls on Russia and Syria to ground all aircraft in northwest Syria

Secretary of State John F. Kerry called on Russia and Syria on Wednesday to “immediately ground all aircraft” flying in key areas of northwest Syria where a humanitarian convoy was destroyed Monday, and accused Moscow of inventing its “own facts” to explain the air attack for which Russia is responsible.
“The simple reality is we cannot resolve this crisis if major parties . . . are unwilling to do what’s necessary to avoid escalation,” Kerry told the U.N. Security Council. “We don’t get anywhere by ignoring facts and denying common sense.”
