JUST IN: Syrian warplanes take off from air base hit by U.S., carry out strikes in Homs countryside – Syrian observatory for human rights.- Reuters.
According to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, the planes carried out strikes in rebel-held areas in the Homs countryside.
The Shayrat base was the target of a Tomahawk missile strike carried out by the United States late Thursday night, a direct response to reports the Syrian regime launched a chemical attack on its own citizens Tuesday morning.
