US President Donald Trump has addressed the nation after authorising a targeted missile strike on an airbase in Syria. In his speech, he said that he had ordered a missile strike on airbase in Syria from which as he claims the Idlib chemical attack was launched.
Trump claimed that Syrian President Bashar Assad had used deadly nerve agent to kill many people, calling “all civilized nations to end the slaughter and bloodshed in Syria”.
The missile strike on Syrian airfield was in “vital national security interest” of the united states, Trump said, adding that it is in interests of the country to prevent the spread and use of chemical weapons.
