False alarm causes Syrian defense missiles to fire

Smoke billows in the town of Douma in Syria's Eastern Ghouta

Smoke billows in the town of Douma in Syria's Eastern Ghouta

Syrians walk through destruction in the town of Douma, the site of a suspected chemical weapons attack, near Damascus, Syria, Monday, April 16, 2018.

"At present, we do not know when the team can be deployed to Douma", Uzumcu added in a statement.

Russian Federation last week again vetoed a US -drafted resolution for the goal of establishing an investigative mechanism for chemical weapons use in Syria.

Even the g7 say they "completely encourage all efforts created by the usa, the United Kingdom and France to degrade the (Bashar) Assad program's capacity to use chemical weapons and also to deter any upcoming use" with the strikes.

Three missiles were targeting Dumayr airbase in Damascus countryside, the Syrian television said, quoting a military sourcing as confirming that all three missiles were shot down.

"Experts from the chemical weapons committee enter the town of Douma", state news agency SANA wrote.

The delay comes a day after Syria's UN Ambassador Bashar al-Jaafari told UNSC members that the OPCW would begin probing the alleged poison gas attack on Wednesday.

First the chlorine, then chaos and death in Syria attack
He was referring to the rebel fighters who controlled Douma until the Syrian army took it back about a week ago. On Tuesday, there had been conflicting reports about whether the OPCW experts had arrived in Douma.

On Saturday, they carried out missile strikes on three targets they said were "specifically associated with the Syrian regime's chemical weapons programme".

Then, a Russian diplomat said the problem was that the OPCW team had not been cleared by the United Nations to visit Douma. Russian Federation and its ally deny that.

Some were reached in rebel-held areas in northern Syria where they were evacuated after the attack, while others were still in Douma.

Assad is now in his strongest position since the early months of a seven-year-old civil war that has killed more than 500,000 people and driven more than half of Syrians from their homes.

Russia, the Syrian government's principal backer, has offered several narratives for the attack, claiming simultaneously that there was never an attack, that it was the work of rebels in the area, and that it was an "Anglo-Saxon" conspiracy to spark a provocation.

Nuseir, 25, said he ran from the shelter to a nearby clinic and fainted. As they spoke, government troops were nearby but out of earshot.

But amid rising tension, Kelley Currie, deputy U.S. ambassador for economic and social affairs, described Russia's call as an attempt to deter focus away from the "atrocities" committed by the Syrian government. He said this likely included chlorine gas and sarin.
