French Foreign Minister Jean-Marc Ayrault said on Monday, October 10 he will ask the International Criminal Court (ICC) to investigate possible war crimes in Syria, Reuters reports.

"We do not agree with what Russia is doing, bombarding Aleppo. France is committed as never before to saving the population of Aleppo," Ayrault said.

"If the President decides (to see Putin), this will not be to trade pleasantries," he added
