Syrian regime forces fired intense artillery and rocket barrages Wednesday on the eastern suburbs Damascus amid a fierce government offensive in what two pro-opposition groups claimed was a poisonous gas attack that killed dozens of people.
The claims came as a 20-member U.N. chemical weapons team was in Syria to investigate three sites where chemical weapons attacks had allegedly occurred in the past. The timing raises questions on why would the regime employ chemical agents during a visit by the U.N. experts.
France says all indications show that Syrian army troops are responsible for what it called a chemical massacre.
All the information at our disposal converges to indicate that there was a chemical massacre near Damascus and that the Bashar regime is responsible, French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius said on Saturday.
