Important to note that this is a unilateral action by US and UK and that there has been no UNSC authorization for this. This is western rules based world order reading its ugly head once again.

I’m not saying the US are the good guys but I don’t think the legal prohibition on force applies to this strike because of the antecedent conditions.
