On a telephone conversation with Trump and Macron, May stopped blaming Syria's Assad directly for Saturday's chemical attack, which left at least 40 civilians dead.
\r\n
\r\nShe also refused to say whether the UK might take part in airstrikes on Syria, as Trump and Macron make the case for intervention in response to Saturday's massacre, The Times reported.
\r\n
\r\nThis contrasted with the more forceful language of the US and French presidents who appear ready for action.
\r\n
\r\nMacron said that French forces could launch strikes on Syria's chemical facilities.

\r\nTrump is expected to make an announcement on whether the US will launch air raids against Damascus. Saudi Arabia and Qatar have said separately they could take part in military action, if asked.
\r\n
\r\nUS and French forces have reportedly moved to the eastern Mediterranean in anticipation of the strikes.
\r\n
\r\nCivilian flights have been told to exercise caution in the area by a European flight control body.
\r\n
\r\nMay is said to be considering whether to call parliament - which is in recess - for a vote on military intervention on Syria strikes. 
\r\n
\r\nSome members of her party believe that parliament should have the final say on whether the UK takes part in the strikes.
