Earlier in the day, Amnesty International released a report suggesting Russia’s use of internationally prohibited cluster munitions in populated residential areas in Syria.
“We don’t have any information on the validity of the data that Amnesty International has claimed,” Peskov told journalists.
Peskov added that the Russian Defense Ministry and other organizations were in the process of acquainting themselves with the report.
Since September 30, Russia has been carrying out airstrikes against Daesh (the Islamic State) militant group, having outlawed it, at the request of Syrian President Bashar Assad.
