On the morning of April 7, 2017, the U.S. launched cruise missiles against a Syrian regime target in retaliation for a chemical attack.

About 60 US Tomahawk missiles, fired from warships in the Mediterranean Sea, targeted the government-controlled Shayrat base, in central Syria. The base was where US officials say the Syrian military planes that dropped the chemicals had taken off.

It is not clear whether any of the virtual Russian soldiers in Syria were killed in the attack, but it definitely came as a surprise to Assad's best friend Putin, who has been helping Assad for more than a year to exterminate civilians in Syria. The attack seems to be a kind reminder to Putin from USA about where his place really is.
