WASHINGTON (AP) — The Latest on President Donald Trump's response to Syria's suspected chemical attack on civilians (all times local):
4:35 p.m.
President Donald Trump's national security team has met to discuss the U.S. response to the Syrian government's apparent use of chemical weapons on its own people.
White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders says Vice President Mike Pence chaired the meeting Wednesday afternoon.
She says there have been no decisions yet on whether to strike Syria despite the president's tweet Wednesday morning threatening to fire "nice and new and 'smart!'" missiles.
Sanders says the U.S. is confident in laying blame on the Syrian government and its Russian allies for Saturday's deadly attack in Douma.
