Syria conflict: Russia 'may have committed war crime' - Johnson

UK Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson has suggested Russia may have committed a war crime in Syria if it was behind an attack on an aid convoy near Aleppo.

He told the BBC's Andrew Marr Show that it was right to ask whether Russian forces had deliberately targeted civilians.

Eighteen lorries and a warehouse were destroyed and 20 people killed in last Monday's attack.

Russia denied responsibility, blaming rebel shelling or a US drone.

Mr Johnson also said Russia was "guilty of protracting" the war in Syria and of "making it far more hideous".
