New Chemical Attacks Reported in Syria
(Washington Post) Louisa Loveluck and Carol Morello - Secretary of State Rex Tillerson blamed Russia on Tuesday for failing to rein in poison gas attacks on Syrian civilians. Doctors inside Syria have reported four such attacks since the start of the year, including two on Monday. Rescue workers said pro-government forces fired nine shells carrying chlorine gas on a densely populated residential area in the Damascus suburb of eastern Ghouta. A separate chlorine attack was reported in the northern province of Idlib.
