There's a lot of concern. >> thank you very much. now to the war in syria where russia said it launched a new round of air strikes last night. some of the videos we're getting in this morning the russian defense ministry said its planes have hit about a dozen targets, all purportedly seeing. >> it does appear that they were in areas that probably were not ice el forces and that's one of the parole athis is obviously a very tense time, a volatile situation and we don't really know what the situation was

Are in support of assad? >> i think it would be a reach for russia to target isis forces in iraq. they don't have good intelligence there. there is plenty of u.s. air power that can be applied there. and again, russia's interest here is in propping up bashar al assad and not necessarily in destroying isis. i think hater al-abadi is welcoming anybody there. they are in a serious fight and need all the help they can get. >> still to come here critics were concerned about hillary clinton's private e-mails being hacked. new information show they had every reason to worry. next.
