The Latest: Tillerson says no reason for Russia to retaliate


PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) — The Latest on developments in the aftermath of U.S. airstrikes against Syria (all times EDT):5:45 p.m.Secretary of State Rex Tillerson says he sees no reason for retaliation from Russia for U.S. missile strikes on a Syrian air base. The Russian government has been implicated in many of the attacks against Syrians opposed to Assad's rule — something Moscow adamantly denies. In an interview to air Sunday on CBS' "Face the Nation," Tillerson says Russians were not targeted by the strikes. Tillerson says the Islamic State group is a threat not just to the U.S. but to stability in the region. The official Saudi Press Agency earlier reported that the king had complimented Trump in their telephone conversation for his "courageous decision."
