Bashar al-Assad

A medical staff at Damascus Countryside Specialised Hospital holds a placard condemning a suspected chemical weapons attack on the Syrian town of Khan Sheikhun, during a gathering to show solidarity with the victims in the rebel-held Douma on the outskirts of Damascus on April 6, 2017. US forces fired a barrage of cruise missiles at a Syrian airbase on April 7 in response to what President Donald Trump called a "barbaric" chemical attack he blamed on the Damascus regime. Syria's regime has denied any use of chemical weapons and state media on Friday described the US strike -- which was reported to have pulverised the base and killed at least four servicemen -- as an "act of aggression". / AFP PHOTO /

An air strike on rebel-held Khan Sheikhun in the northwestern province of Idlib on April 4, 2017 left scores of civilians dead from a suspected chemical weapons attack. At least 86 people -- among them 27 children -- were killed, with results from post-mortems performed on victims pointing to possible exposure to sarin, according to Turkish health officials. / AFP PHOTO / Zakaria ABDELKAFI (Photo credit should read ZAKARIA ABDELKAFI/AFP/Getty Images)
