Kerry and Lavrov Meet in NY Amid Collapse of Syrian Ceasefire
-------------------------------------------------------------

In news from the war in Syria, Secretary of State John Kerry and Russian
Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov are meeting in New York today to discuss
the collapse of the ceasefire agreement and the attack on U.N. aid
convoys on Monday. This comes as the United States is saying Russia is
likely responsible for Monday's attack, which destroyed 18 of the
convoys as aid workers were unloading food and other supplies at a Red
Crescent warehouse. The Red Cross says 20 people were killed. Russia has
denied responsibility.
