U.N. Inspectors Resume Chemical Probe in Syria 
-----------------------------------------------


 
A group of United Nations weapons inspectors has returned to Syria to
continue investigating reports of chemical weapons use there. Their
probe will include gathering evidence about an attack on the village of
Khan al Assal near the city of Aleppo on March 19 that reportedly killed
dozens. Both the government and Syrian rebels have blamed each other for
the attack. A previous report by the inspectors confirmed the nerve
agent sarin was used in the deadly attack in Ghouta last month.
