Damascus: Syrian state media reported Tuesday that investigators from the world's chemical watchdog had entered Douma, a town outside Damascus where an alleged gas attack 10 days earlier left dozens dead.
"Experts from the chemical weapons committee enter the town of Douma," state news agency SANA wrote, referring to the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons.
