At least three people have been injured following a airstrike on a number of chemical weapons factories in Syria on Saturday morning.

According to Syrian state media SANA, three people were injured near a military facility in Homs.

Reports in the state say the three civilians were injured after missiles aimed at a targeted military facility “thwarted and diverted from their path.”

They also say the strikes which were carried out by US, British and French forces caused material damage to a scientific research centre in the Barzeh district of Damascus.

Although US, British or French military forces have yet to confirm the casualties, the Pentagon have said the targets were hit by precision cruise missiles.
