Russian,US Mil.Vehicles Crash in NEast Syria; Russia Blames US, US Blames Russia for Crash

The Russian and U.S. governments have blamed each other for a collision between Russian and U.S. armored vehicles this week in northeastern Syria in which several U.S. troops were injured, the BBC website reports today (August 27, 2020).

A Russian video appears to show a Russian military vehicle in a desert convoy ramming a U.S. armored vehicle, as a Russian helicopter flies low overhead.

Russia says the U.S. obstructed a patrol.

A U.S. defense official said Russian forces had entered a "security zone" they had agreed not to enter.
