ANKARA (AA) – Persident Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Saturday welcomed the airstrikes jointly carried out by the U.S., U.K. and France against Bashar al-Assad regime in the wake of a suspected chemical attack in Douma.
“We find the operation appropriate, ” Erdogan told a crowd during the 6th ordinary district congress of Justice and Development (AK) Party in Istanbul's Fatih district.
The U.S., U.K., and France launched airstrikes on the Assad regime's alleged chemical weapons facilities in Syria earlier on Saturday.
On April 7, the White Helmets, a civil defense agency, accused the Assad regime of an alleged chemical attack, which it said killed 78 civilians and injured hundreds of others.
