Syrian state media have reported a missile attack targeting an airbase in the central province of Homs just before daybreak. Air defenses have shot down at least eight missiles before reaching their target.
The reports add the attack was most likely carried out by the United States. But several Washington officials have denied it. This attack comes after US President Donald Trump, who on Sunday warned there would be a big price to pay, when reports of a chemical attack in the rebel-held town of Douma emerged.
