Russian President Vladimir Putin says Russia is showing restraint in Syria, but might lose patience and respond in some way to unspecified actions.
"We ... don't respond to our partners in such a rude way. But everything has its limits. We may respond," Putin told an audience in southern Russia on Thursday.
He made the comments after accusing the US-led coalition of violating a ceasefire agreement by bombing Syrian government forces in September.
Putin also said that Russia had no plans to intervene militarily in the Middle East beyond Syria.
Asked whether Russia might intervene in Iraq and Libya in the same way as it had in Syria, Putin told a forum in southern Russia:
"No, we don't plan this anywhere."
