Lebanese Shia group Hezbollah said on Friday that the US cruise missile strike on a Syrian airbase was an “idiotic step” which would lead to “great and dangerous tensions” in the Middle East.
Hezbollah, which supports Syrian President Bashar al-Assad in the six-year-old conflict, said in a statement the strike would not demoralise the Syrian army or negatively affect its allies.

The US military action was a “service” to Israel and its “ambitions in the region,” Hezbollah added, without elaborating.
