Use of chemical weapons, “first act” by opposition fanciful interim government

Syrian Information Minister Omran al-Zoubi has described militants’ use of chemical weapons as the “first act” by the opposition interim government.

The Syrian minister also said Turkey and Qatar, which support militants fighting against the government of President Bashar al-Assad, bear “legal, moral and political responsibility” for the chemical attack in the northern city of Aleppo, which killed 16 people and injured 86 others.
