Chemical Inspectors Collect More Samples from Syria’s Douma
[AAWSAT] Chemical weapons inspectors collected on Wednesday more samples from the Syrian town of Douma, three weeks after a regime chemical attack in the area that left at least 40 people dead.

Making a second visit to the area, they collected samples from a new location hit by a gas attack on April 7.

The Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons said all the evidence collected in Douma will be brought back to its labs on the outskirts of The Hague.

"They will be split and dispatched for analysis by the OPCW designated labs," the body said.

An earlier visit took place on Saturday after the inspectors were delayed for days from getting to the town, just east of Damascus, over security reasons. The delay prompted accusations that Russia and Syria may have tampered with evidence at the site.
