The Syrian intelligence possesses an audio recording of conversation between Daesh terrorists and US military prior to the Washington-led coalition's airstrikes on the government troops near Deir ez-Zor on September 17, the speaker of the People's Council of Syria said Monday.

US warplanes hit Syrian government troops near�the eastern city of�Deir ez-Zor on�September 17, leaving 62 military personnel killed and a hundred wounded.

The Pentagon said initially that the airstrike was a mistake and targeted Daesh militants. Hadiya Khalaf Abbas, the head of�the Syrian parliament, added during�her visit to�Iran that after�the coalition's airstrikes on�the government troops US military directed terrorists' attack on�the Syrian army.

The attack on�government positions put to�test a US-Russia brokered nationwide ceasefire that came into�being in�Syria earlier that week. Russia's Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said last Friday it was necessary to�separate Daesh terrorists from "moderate" opposition forces in�order to�salvage the truce.
