The US, US and France have launched “precision strikes” in Syria in response to a suspected chemical weapons attack in the country.
Donald Trump announced the “combined operation” on Friday night, as Prime Minister Theresa May said there was “no practicable alternative to the use of force”.

Strikes were launched at 2am BST at three sites connected with the Syrian regime’s chemical weapons programme.
