UN team to investigate chemical weapons use in Syria
(Xinhua)   2013-08-19 11:09:11

BEIJING, Aug. 19 (Xinhuanet) -- UN inspectors have arrived in Damascus to investigate the alleged use of chemical weapons, as Syria’s government vowed to cooperate fully with them.

The 20-member team is led by Swedish chemical-weapons expert Ake Sellstrom. Its mission will be investigating the alleged use of chemical weapons in three areas - in particular the March 19th attack in Khan al-Assal.

At least 25 people were killed and 130 others wounded when armed men fired a rocket stuffed with chemical materials in Khan al-Asal. The other two sites have been kept secret. The Syrian government and the rebels each say the other side has used chemical weapons during the 28-month conflict.
