The United States may have assisted a drone attack on a Russian airbase in Syria

Article in The Times today.

Snip:-
The United States may have assisted a drone attack on a Russian airbase in Syria, officials in Moscow alleged yesterday.

Russia’s defence ministry said it was an “odd coincidence” that a US navy Poseidon reconnaissance aircraft had been in the area when ten rebel drones armed with explosives swarmed over its Hmeimim airbase on Friday and Saturday. Three drones were sent to its Tartus naval base on the Syrian coast.
