No change in policy at this point.

Pro-Asaad Regime forces were in a deconfliction zone and were warned but did not comply.

ETA:
U.S. forces bombed a militia aligned with Syrian president Bashar Assad in southern Syria, a Pentagon official confirmed Thursday.
The strike took place in At Tanf near Syria's border with Jordan and Iraq, the official said. The United States has been using the area to train its partnered local forces.

The official could not immediately provide more information on the strike, including whether the strike was in defense of the partnered forces and the makeup of the militia that was struck.

A statement from U.S. Central Command will come shortly, the official said.

Rally round the flag, boys. No time for partisanship, amirite? At least it wasn't North Korea.

It's a good tactic before sitting at these ME countries negotiation tables next week. Gotta set the table.

Seriously had a thread typed out about expecting this to happen, but received a PM from admins about my board activity and decided not to post it.

Wag the dog? B.S. hardly anyone notices this any more. Now if they had hit NK, MAYBE.
