U.S. Launches Missle Attack Against Syria

The United States has attacked a Syrian air base with roughly 60 cruise missiles in response to a chemical weapons attack.

U.S. officials say the Tomahawk missiles were fired from two warships in the Mediterranean Sea, targeting a government-controlled air base in Syria.

Dr. Fred Pearson, Wayne State University Political Science professor, and Director of the school’s Center for Peace and Conflict Studies, says this complicates an already-sticky situation overseas-

Syria called the operation “an aggression” that killed at least six people. Rebels welcomed the U.S. attack.
