Vox: Trump backtracks on new Russia sanctions the day after they're announced
Under the so-called royal prerogative, British governments are not obliged to take potential military strikes or wars to parliament for approval; however, in several recent instances governments have elected to do so - including two votes on potential military action in Syria in recent years.
May told legislators in the House of Commons that seeking their approval would have been impractical, both because the parliament was on a spring break until Monday and because some of the intelligence behind the decision was classified.
She said the chemicals were dropped in barrel bombs from helicopters, which are only used by the Syrian government. "And a wider operation to hide the facts of the attack is underway, supported by the Russians", she said.
Speaking to the BBC, Johnson said what he described as the successful strikes on three sites in Syria were a message from the world that enough was enough, but acknowledged he could not say whether Assad still had chemical weapons.
John Rees, co-founder of the coalition, told Xinhua that the USA -led strikes on Syria would destabilize the region and further the conflict between Russian Federation and West.
'All indications were this was a chemical weapons attack'.
The second emergency debate in the House of Commons is due to get underway this afternoon.
"We have not done this because President Trump asked us to do so".

But at a press conference in Paris on Monday, Macron said that France had acted with "international legitimacy".
The group said in a statement posted on its Facebook account that the "overwhelming majority" of British people oppose the illegal "gesture bombing" targeting Syria, which will have further impeded the development of peaceful global relations.
Some French Opposition leaders have criticized the strikes, saying they were not legitimate.
Out of the 2,060 respondents in the survey, 54 percent also agreed with the statement that May "should have held a parliamentary debate and vote before intervening militarily in Syria".
In Luxembourg, the foreign ministers of the 28 European Union countries called for a political breakthrough involving regional players to put Syria on track to a peaceful solution for its seven-year conflict.
"It was about a limited, targeted and effective strike that sought to alleviate the humanitarian suffering of the Syrian people by degrading the Syrian regime's chemical weapons capability and deterring their use".
She stressed that should not be able to have an effective veto over United Kingdom foreign policy by consistently blocking action against the Syrian regime at the UN Security Council.
