The Syrian Armed Forces refuted the allegations.<\/p>\n<p>Late on Thursday, the United States launched 59 Tomahawk cruise missiles at the Syrian military airfield in Ash Sha&#8217;irat near Homs. US President Donald Trump said the attack was a response to the alleged chemical weapon use in Idlib, which Washington blames on Damascus.<\/p>\n<p>The attack was supported by US allies, which called the strikes a just and appropriate response. Moscow condemned the US strikes, saying it was &#8220;an aggression against a sovereign state in violation of the norms of international law.&#8221; According to Russian authorities, strikes on Syria were an attempt to distract public attention from the mounting civilian casualties in Iraq.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MOSCOW\u2014France vows to take any initiative to resume the Syria settlement process, French President Francois Hollande said Friday.
