United States President, Donald Trump, said the killing of dozens of civilians in northern Syria in an apparent chemical weapons attack is an “Affront to humanity”.
According to UK-based monitoring group, the Syrian observatory for human rights, out of 86 people killed in the chemical incident in Khan Sheikhoun, Idlib province, 30 of them are children.
The US President, however, did not mention Russia, Syria’s ally, which says chemical weapons in rebel hands may have been released.
But America’s envoy to the United Nations (UN) accused Russia of covering up for Damascus.
