YEREVAN, MAY 20, ARMENPRESS. The US won’t strike Syria again in case the American forces aren’t threatened, Joseph Dunford, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff of the US military said.

“I’ve committed that such thing won’t be repeated, if nothing threatens our forces”, he said as quoted by Reuters.

Earlier the Pentagon said the coalition, led by the US, delivered a strike on Syrian pro-governmental forces in At Tanfa.

Russian FM Sergey Lavrov condemned the strike, calling it ‘illegal and illegitimate’.
