    I thought the web page might be a hoax but the Andy Blumenthal tweet gives it credibility.

    This video is from the 5:43 update.
    (Only includes Russian subtitles and the English auto translation is terrible.)

    Ruptly news item accompanying the video:
    Published on Mar 17, 2018.

    "Several militant groups have been trained by US instructors in the vicinity of the Syrian town of Al-Tanf to stage provocations involving chemical warfare agents in southern Syria, according to Chief of the Main Operational Directorate of the Russian General Staff Colonel General Sergei Rudskoy, speaking during a briefing in Moscow, Saturday.

    "These provocations are supposed to be a pretext for the US and its allies for strikes against military and government targets on Syria’s territory," he stated.

    "We note that there are signs of preparations for possible attacks. Strike groups of cruise missile carriers have been formed in the east of the Mediterranean Sea, Persian Gulf and Red Sea," he added.

    Rudskoy also asked: "whom is the USA going to help with these strikes? Al-Nusra terrorists and its accomplices operating in Eastern Ghouta?"
