Putin informed before Afghan air strikes says Kremlin
The Kremlin says President Bush told Vladimir Putin of plans to order air strikes in Afghanistan in a Sunday telephone call, with Putin turning 49 that day. NATO was notified in advance though not directly involved, as allied troops pledged to support as the operation unfolds. Russia’s air defenses were not ordered to respond to the assault.
