MOSCOW - Russian fighters were among those killed when US-led coalition forces clashed with pro-government forces in Syria this month, former associates of the dead said on Monday.


A US official has said more than 100 fighters aligned with Syrian President Bashar al-Assad died when coalition and local coalition-backed forces thwarted a large attack overnight on Feb. 7.

Russia's Defence Ministry, which supports Assad's forces in the Syrian civil war, said at the time that pro-government militias involved in the incident had been carrying out reconnaissance and no Russian servicemen had been in the area.

But at least two Russian men fighting informally with pro-government forces were killed in the incident in Deir al-Zor province, their associates told Reuters on Monday.

One of the dead was named as Vladimir Loginov, a Cossack from Russia's Kaliningrad exclave. Maxim Buga, a leader of the Cossack community there, said Loginov had been killed around Feb. 7 along with "dozens" of other Russian fighters.

The other man killed was named as Kirill Ananiev, described as a radical Russian nationalist. Alexander Averin, a spokesman for the nationalist party he was linked to, told Reuters Ananiev had been killed in shelling in the same fighting on Feb. 7.

Reuters was unable to independently confirm either man's death.

Grigory Yavlinsky, a veteran liberal politician who is running for president in elections next month, called on President Vladimir Putin to disclose how many Russians had been killed in Syria and in what circumstances."If there was large-scale loss of life of Russian citizens, the relevant officials, including the commander-in-chief of our armed forces (Putin), are obliged to tell the country about it and decide who carries responsibility for this," Yavlinsky said in a statement released by his Yabloko party.

In 1961, the state of Hawaii would issue ANYONE a generic certificate of birth EVEN THOUGH YOU WEREN'T BORN IN HAWAII. THAT is what obama has. It does NOT say he was BORN IN HAWAII. There is no ORIGINAL, HAWAIIAN, HARD COPY BIRTH CERTIFICATE for obama. He also said he was born at one hospital in Hawaii and his sister claimed he was born at another. They failed to get that straight before they started this charade. NO ONE has EVER seen this fabled HARD COPY HAWAIIAN BIRTH CERTIFICATE, EVER, and never will because there ISN'T ONE.

He also has a STOLEN SS#. His grandmother WORKED for the SS office and STOLE it for him. Unfortunately the number comes back to a man born in CONNECTICUT in the 1920's, a state obama has NEVER lived in.

His selective service card number was also tampered with.

These are all COLD HARD IRREFUTABLE FACTS, EVERYTHING about obama is a FRAUD, and it ALL should be exposed. He belongs in PRISON. Obama was the GRAND EXPERIMENT, the FIRST BLACK PRESIDENT, and Washington WILLFULLY gave all this a PASS. Problem is the experiment FAILED. He was supposed to prove to the WORLD that America wasn't a RACIST nation. The problem was, OBAMA WAS ONE OF THE BIGGEST RACISTS IN THE NATION.
