The United States' new envoy to the coalition it leads against ISIS said on Wednesday that only 30 percent of airstrikes conducted by Russia in Syria targeted the ultra-hardline group.

 

Brett McGurk said the rest of Russia's strikes hit "other armed groups," whereas the U.S.-led coalition was focused solely on ISIS.
