  • U.S. officials level incendiary charge against Russia that it knew beforehand about the gas attack on  Khan Shaykhun last week
  • Officials are basing their conclusion on presence of a Russian drone which flew over a hospital as victims fled to get treatment
  • Hours later a Russian-made fighter bombed the hospital which officials said they believe was an attempt to cover up the atrocity
  • Unclear if jet was Russian or Syrian as Assad's forces fly Russian-made jets 
  • Local reports spoke about a 'Russian shelling' of a hospital; unclear if this is the one officials are referring to
