US, UK and France launch Syria strikes targeting Assad's chemical weapons

The US, UK and France launched strikes against targets at three sites in Syria in the early hours of Saturday morning, following a week of threats of retaliation for an alleged chemical weapons attack on civilians in the Damascus enclave of Douma.

"I ordered the United States armed forces to launch precision strikes on targets associated with the chemical weapon capabilities of Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad," Trump said late Friday at the White House.
The strikes were launched at 9 p.m. ET, as most of Europe and the Middle East was shrouded in darkness. Photos showed missiles streaking over the night sky in Syria, and witnesses told CNN they heard explosions in the capital Damascus as Trump was making his address.

The Syrian Armed Forces said in a statement that 110 missiles were fired on Syrian targets and that the country's defense systems "intercepted most of the missiles, but some hit targets including the Research Center in Barzeh."

Russia's news agency TASS reported that none of the missiles fired by the three western nations struck areas near its naval and air bases in Syria. Those bases come under the protection of Russian air defense units.

Your right ..its hard to live every day with peace... fear to watch news channels now a days..almost 24 hours with some breaking news :(

I admit to being completely overwhelmed by this type of debate: on the one hand I do not believe in resolution by violence, on the other hand I see that for now this is where nothing. But so far, "nothing" has not given much valuable. This is to ask if there is a "good" solution, or even a "solution" short.

On the whole, even if I go, I hope that we will not do things halfway and that it will be the end of the Syrian conflict. Otherwise I do not understand the very meaning of "retaliation", if it is to "punish" 1 chemical attack on the 187 listed to date.

Look like a day in the New Cold War . Why the Western want to bombing Middle-East ? For the oils or for fun ! Assad is the legally president of a democracy country .
