INTERNATIONAL NEWS - Several people have died or were hurt after a Syrian military airport was hit by missiles, state media said, amid international alarm over a suspected chemical attack on a rebel-held town.
Several missiles struck the Tiyas airbase, known as T4, near the city of Homs in the early hours of Monday.
Syria claimed Western involvement, but the US has denied responsibility.
