Good morning, I'm Jenny and you're live with Newsround. | :00:14. | :00:15. | |
Last night, America launched attacks on Syria, | :00:16. | :00:17. | |
These missiles were fired into Syria from American warships | :00:18. | :00:26. | |
The target was a military base belonging to troops that support | :00:27. | :00:32. | |
President Trump says he ordered the missile strikes after an attack | :00:33. | :00:39. | |
in Syria earlier in the week using chemical weapons. | :00:40. | :00:47. | |
Tonight I ordered a targeted military strike on the airfield | :00:48. | :00:53. | |
in Syria from where the chemical attack was launched. | :00:54. | :01:01. | |
It is in this vital national security interest | :01:02. | :01:04. | |
of the United States to prevent and deter the spread and use | :01:05. | :01:07. | |
Many countries and many experts have blamed the Syrian government | :01:08. | :01:19. | |
But the Syrian President says he didn't do it. | :01:20. | :01:24. | |
The world has been meeting all week to see what they should do | :01:25. | :01:28. | |
The UK Government says it fully support the US strikes against the | :01:29. | :01:37. | |
airbase. Now President Trump has taken action | :01:38. | :01:40. | |
but everyone is waiting And why do they cause such shock | :01:41. | :01:42. | |
and anger when they're used? Chemical weapons are toxic chemicals | :01:43. | :01:48. | |
that are used to hurt or kill. They were used in World War I more | :01:49. | :01:55. | |
than 100 years ago. They caused such horror that in 1925 | :01:56. | :02:00. | |
countries agreed to an international Even in war there are rules that | :02:01. | :02:03. | |
countries agreed to. Some of those about the types | :02:04. | :02:07. | |
of weapons that can be used. 20 years ago there was | :02:08. | :02:11. | |
an agreement called 192 nations, including Syria, | :02:12. | :02:13. | |
have signed it, agreeing to destroy all their chemical weapons, | :02:14. | :02:23. | |
which is why there is a lot of anger about the suspected attack, | :02:24. | :02:26. | |
in a country which has been at war Is it OK to go on holiday | :02:27. | :02:29. | |
during term time? Well, the country's top court | :02:30. | :02:35. | |
decided no yesterday, and that your parents must | :02:36. | :02:37. | |
follow your school's It's after one girl's dad | :02:38. | :02:40. | |
refused to pay a fine for taking her on a term-time | :02:41. | :02:46. | |
holiday that her school The judges said they can | :02:47. | :02:49. | |
affect kids' learning, But the dad involved said parents | :02:50. | :02:53. | |
should be able to decide what's Some students have been | :02:54. | :02:58. | |
giving us their thoughts. I don't think they should be allowed | :02:59. | :03:05. | |
to go on holiday in school time because there is a set | :03:06. | :03:08. | |
time for holidays. The school should know what happens | :03:09. | :03:10. | |
before they go so I think the parents should negotiate | :03:11. | :03:14. | |
with the school before they go. I think they should be allowed | :03:15. | :03:18. | |
but if it is a couple of days it is fine but if it is more | :03:19. | :03:21. | |
than a week then no. I do not think they should be | :03:22. | :03:26. | |
punished at all because If it is more than one or two weeks | :03:27. | :03:29. | |
then they should be punished and if it is just a few days then | :03:30. | :03:36. | |
I still think that is fine. And we want to hear from you today | :03:37. | :03:42. | |
about what you think Are there some times when it's OK | :03:43. | :03:45. | |
to go away during school or do you think it should | :03:46. | :03:50. | |
never be allowed? The Gaming Baftas took | :03:51. | :03:52. | |
place last night. The awards to recognise | :03:53. | :03:56. | |

the world's first ship tunnel. The one mile-long and 120-foot wide | :04:15. | :04:16. | |
tunnel will connect two fjords so that ships of up to 20,000 tons | :04:17. | :04:24. | |
can get through. It will cost ?250 million and take | :04:25. | :04:29. | |

woman to command the ISS. And that's not the only | :04:47. | :04:52. | |
record Peggy's broken. Her first mission was back in 2002 | :04:53. | :04:58. | |
and she holds the record for the longest time spent in space | :04:59. | :05:00. | |
by a woman. This is Peggy's third mission | :05:01. | :05:07. | |
to the ISS and this time, when she set off on November 18th | :05:08. | :05:12. | |
