“France has dispatched an anti-air warfare frigate to the eastern Mediterranean Sea amid growing speculation of an imminent missile strike on Syria, French news magazine Le Point reported on Thursday. According to an unnamed French military source quoted by the magazine, the Chevalier Paul is en route to join a growing flotilla of warships including US navy destroyers and British and American submarines, which are armed with Tomahawk cruise missiles. Meanwhile Russia, a close ally of Syria’s President Bashar al-Assad and a staunch opponent of military strikes against the Damascus regime, announced that it is sending two ships to the Mediterranean.”
