Navy says CNN report about being harassed by Russian jets was fake news
By Staff Writer| April 11th, 2018|Military News, U.S. Navy|0 Comments
The US Navy is calling “fake news†on a recent CNN report that a US Destroyer was buzzed several times by a Russian attack aircraft off the coast of Syria.
The offending report was submitted by CNN Turk, the Turkish affiliate of CNN that claimed the Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer Donald Cook had not only entered Syrian waters loaded with Tomahawk missiles but was buzzed four times by a Russian attack plane.
