Trump: Syria attack 'crossed a lot of lines'
US President Donald Trump warned Wednesday that Bashar al-Assad's Syrian regime had crossed a line with its latest alleged chemical attack and faces a US response. Trump described the strike on the rebel-held town of Khan Sheikhun as an "affront to humanity" and warned it had changed his view of the Russian-backed Syrian leader. Previously the White House has said its sole focus in Syria is defeating the jihadist Islamic State group, not on ending Assad's civil war against opposition fighters.
