DAMASCUS. August 30. KAZINFORM - UN chemical weapons inspectors have toured rebel-held areas near the Syrian capital of Damascus for a third day of investigation, Kazinform has learned from Xinhua.
Amateur video posted online claimed to show UN inspectors wearing gas masks walking through a damaged building in the eastern Damascus suburb of Zamalka. In other unverified amateur video, another member of the team was filmed telling a Free Syrian Army soldier the process for taking samples from alleged chemical weapons victims.
The team began their work in Moadhamiya after braving sniper fire on Monday. The UN said the collected samples would be analyzed and the report presented to the UN Security Council.
