Russia accuses US of wiping Syria's Raqqa off face of earth
Russia has accused the US-led coalition of wiping Syria's Raqqa "off the face of the earth" with "barbaric" bombings. It said that the bombings were similar to the US-Britain's bombing of the German city of Dresden during World War II, killing around 25,000 civilians. Raqqa was recaptured from Islamic State by the US-backed Syrian Democratic Forces last week.
