The #UnitedStates launched dozens of cruise missiles Thursday night at a #Syrian airfield in response to what it believes was #Syria's use of banned #chemicalweapons that killed at least 100 people, U.S. military officials told NBC News.
Two U.S. warships in the Mediterranean Sea fired 59 #Tomahawkmissiles intended for a single target — Ash Sha'irat in Homs province in western Syria, the officials said. That's the airfield from which the United States believes the government of Syrian #PresidentBasharalAssad fired the banned weapons.
There was no immediate word on casualties. U.S. officials told NBC News that people were not targeted and that aircraft and infrastructure at the site, including the runway, were hit.
#PresidentDonaldTrump was expected to make remarks shortly from Mar-a-Lago, his family compound in #PalmBeach, #Florida, where he hosted a dinner for Chinese #PresidentXiJinpeng.
Defense Secretary James Mattis, Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and national security adviser H.R. McMaster traveled to Florida with Trump. In Washington, Vice President #MikePence returned to the White House after having gone home for dinner Thursday evening.
Ahrar Al Sham, the largest Syrian armed rebel group, told NBC News it "welcomes any U.S. intervention through surgical strikes that would deter the Assad regime capabilities to kill civilians and shorten the suffering of our people." Tillerson and Nikki Haley, the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, have bluntly blamed Syria for the chemical weapons attack, whose victims included at least 25 children.
Tillerson told reporters on Thursday that "there is no doubt in our minds" that the Syrian regime was responsible for the attack. And in a combative speech at the U.N. Security Council on Wednesday, Haley warned: "When the #UnitedNations consistently fails in its duty to act collectively, there are times in the life of states that we are compelled to take our own action."
