Staff writer, Al Arabiya, 6 April 2017 – CNN quoted US sources reported that US President Donald Trump told members of Congress that he was thinking of military action against Syria.

Earliers, the US has not excluded a military response to a poison gas attack that killed scores of civilians which Washington blamed on the Syrian government, a senior administration official said on Thursday.

Asked whether the military option had been taken off the table, the official said: “No.”

It is unclear how much US military planning exists on striking targets associated with Syrian President Bashar al-Assad’s government.
