The US Department of Defense on April 14 released a video showing the moment a US naval destroyer launched Tomahawk cruise missiles into Syria.

Video footage shows Tomahawk cruise missiles being launched from the destroyer USS Monterey in the Red Sea.

The US and its allies, Britain and France, launched airstrikes on Syria in the early morning of April 14 in response to Damascus' alleged use of chemical weapons. According to the Pentagon, 105 missiles hit all targets that the US and its allies aimed at Syria.

While Syria claimed its air force had successfully intercepted 71 cruise missiles, US President Donald Trump said the airstrike on Syria was a “perfect success” and “the result could not have been better”./.
