Britain poised to bomb Syria over suspected chemical weapons use

The Siasat Daily

Britain could bomb Syria over last week’s suspected chemical weapons atrocity, which killed hundreds of children.

British Prime Minister David Cameron held talks with French President Francois Hollande after consulting President Barack Obama on Saturday to agree ‘a firm response’ following the suspected gas attack, which killed thousands.   

Options include a Tomahawk Land Attack Missile, or TLAM, fired from a Royal Navy submarine or a strategic strike by RAF Tornado bombers from Cyprus.

The Western allies said a firm response was needed and accused President Bashar al-Assad’s regime of hiding evidence about the gas attack, the BBC reports.

According to the report, military chiefs have identified targets in Syria as Cameron is considering ordering a military strike against a regime he believes gassed its own people.

A bombardment seemed inevitable despite Syria caving in to allow United Nations inspectors to examine a dozen sites where chemical weapons are thought to have been used, the report said.

Military strikes could likely happen within a week and designed to act as a warning to the Syrian regime, Government sources indicated. (ANI)
