After Syria strikes, Britain's May to face critical parliament
"The goal of our actions tonight is to establish a strong deterrent against the production, spread and use of chemical weapons", US President Donald Trump said in a televised address.
The UK and United States have said the strikes were successful, with President Trump warning the U.S. is "locked and loaded" for further action if there are more chemical attacks. The Russian center for the reconciliation of conflicting parties on April 9 examined Douma to find no traces of chemical weapons.
"Africa expects the United Nations Security Council members, especially those that are permanent, to put aside their differences and spare no efforts in the pursuit of global peace and humanity's common good, in line with the responsibilities conferred upon them by the United Nations Charter".
Mr Johnson, speaking at a summit of European Union foreign ministers, stressed it was "not an attempt to change the tide of the war in Syria or to have regime change" and "the Syrian war in many ways will go on in its terrible, miserable way".
"The fact that the atrocity can take place in the world today is a stain on humanity", she said.
It is thought President Bashar al-Assad's regime had been stockpiling materials used to make chemical weapons there, it said.
"We warned them that next time when they want to discuss the Syrian problem, we will bring here, in The Hague, those people who took part in the White Helmet's choreographed episodes, who, voluntarily or not, were involved in the huge provocations, be it in Syria's Douma or in Khan Shaykhun", he said. There is no reason to believe that the "overall erosion of the use of chemical weapons will change".

26th gold for India came from women's badminton in Commonwealth Games
The last two games were totally one-sided as the veteran Malaysian star handed out a masterclass in placement and deception. Hosts Australia led the medal standings with 198 medals, including 80 Gold; 59 Silver medals and 59 Bronze.
Syria and Russian Federation have also denied that any chemical attack took place, and so far there has been no independent confirmation of civilian casualties.
The bombings marked the biggest intervention by Western countries against Assad and ally Russian Federation.
If there is a Russian, Syrian or Iranian response, it is likely to be indirect and asymmetrical, such as targeting or undermining the USA presence in Syria or retaliating against its allies.
The renewed push for a UN-backed diplomatic solution follows a volatile emergency meeting of the UN Security Council, called by Moscow on Saturday, in which Russian Federation condemned the strikes as a violation of worldwide law.
"There are certainly various asymmetric means through which Russia, Syria and Iran could respond inside Syria or outside", said Heller. "If al-Assad and his allies can weaken the SDF, they can crack the foundation of the U.S. military's planning for Syria".
Russian President Vladimir Putin spoke to Iranian President Hassan Rouhani on Sunday, and in a joint statement released by the Kremlin they called the missile strike an "illegal action", that "seriously damages the prospects for a political settlement in Syria".
It didn't say who carried out the early Tuesday airstrikes. Such a move would restrict Israel's freedom to maneuver across Syria's skies.
