US President Donald Trump has tweeted that Russia should "get ready" for missiles to be fired at its ally Syria, in response to an alleged chemical attack near Damascus on Saturday.
"Get ready Russia, because they will be coming, nice and new and 'smart!'" Mr Trump said in his tweet.
Senior Russian figures have threatened to meet any US strikes with a response.
President Bashar al-Assad's government denies mounting a chemical attack on the rebel-held town of Douma.
In one his tweets on Wednesday, Mr Trump called the Syrian leader a "gas killing animal".
In another, he painted a dark picture of US-Russia relations but said it did not have to be that way.
The US, UK and France have agreed to work together and are believed to be preparing for a military strike in response to the alleged chemical attack at the weekend.

I agree and any attempt to sell this as 3-D chess is ridiculous.
It was. Deal with it.
What are you arguing for anyway when you thanked me here?

Sorry, juvenile insistence on your part doesn't equate to the "coherent conversation" you opined for. Perhaps the suggestion that an extended stay in Vietnam wasn't such a good idea??? Think about it and get back to the board with an adult comment, okay?
Answer: WE WERE ATTACKED!!!
Answer: Totalitarian leadership that violates the individual sovereignty of citizens has no moral right to claim state sovereignty.
What's good for the goose (Syrian gas attacks forfeit their national sovereignty and justify foreign attack) is good for the gander (daily infanticide sanctioned by the U.S. government forfeits our national sovereignty and justifies foreign attack).
Time for YOU to answer a question:
Do you honestly believe the United States that violates the sovereignty of it’s unborn or partially-born citizens with deliberate murder has a moral right to claim state sovereignty?
Answer, without equivocation. Yes or no.
Wrong, that does not equate to invasion. I’m talking in philosophical terms.
No.
Not by Germany.
I think it was a good idea.
Yes, agree totally.
“So?”
Do you need an explanation of that platform’s capability?
