US President Donald Trump commented on the terrorist attack in Sydney and the attack on American soldiers in Syria.

Axar.az reports that speaking at the White House, the US leader called the attack on the beach in Sydney a terrible event, and at the same time expressed great respect for the brave man who prevented the shooter from completing the attack.

"During the attack in Australia, a very brave man entered the fray with one of the attackers and saved many lives," Trump said.

He also touched on the ISIS attack on the US-Syrian patrol in Palmyra. "Three of our great patriots were killed by bad people. These were not the Syrian authorities; these were ISIS. The Syrian government fought on our side," the US President said.
