The OPCW mission is not allowed in Douma

The mission of the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) does not yet have access to the area in the Syrian city of Douma where an attack with chemical weapons would have taken place.

Although the Russian foreign secretary initially denied it, he later said that the mission was delayed by the rocket attacks by the Americans, British and French Saturday, reported the Russian news agency TASS. The Russian OPCW delegation stressed that Russia does not intend to hinder the work of the researchers.
