Russia has revealed it warned the US about "red lines"
it should not cross before it launched airstrikes on Syria.
Foreign minister Sergei Lavrov is reported to have said that
officials in Washington were contacted before last weekend's strikes by the US,
UK and France.
Mr Lavrov said: "There were military leadership contacts,
between generals, between our representatives and the coalition leadership.
"They were informed about where our red lines are, including
red lines on the ground, geographically. And the results show that they did not
cross these red lines."
Some 105 missiles were launched in response to a suspected
chemical attack in the Syrian city of Douma on 7 April that killed more than 40
people.
