Syria – US-led coalition warplanes ‘seen flying over Iraqi border’ as nerve gas counter attack looms: The European air traffic controller has warned airlines to “exercise caution” in the Eastern Mediterranean due to the possible launch of airstrikes in Syria in the next 72 hours.

Nafiseh Kohnavard, a reporter for the BBC, tweeted: "Airlines that are still using Syria’s airspace have received a request to change their corridors for the next 48 hours.

"Sources say that all military bases and important centres of the Syrian government are on high alert as a US attack is expected."
