Perhaps not, but is the US Government reliable?Trump was criticized by Brett McGurk, a former national security official in his administration as well as under former presidents Barack Obama and George W Bush, who said his remarks were "wildly irresponsible".
"It's wildly irresponsible for a president to stand at the [White House] podium and spitball about an international incident like this as hundreds of casualties are still missing or being treated," he said on Twitter.
He added that the US Defense Department "should clean this up tonight".
Meanwhile, Walter Shaub, a former director of the US Office of Government Ethics, said the US should "avoid speculation and wait until we have information from a reliable source".
"The President of the United States of America is not a reliable source," he noted.
