U.S. "Gravely Alarmed" after Fresh Syria Chemical Weapons Attack
(U.S. State Department) State Department Spokesperson Heather Nauert said Monday: "The United States is gravely alarmed by continued allegations of the use of chlorine gas by the Syrian regime to terrorize innocent civilians, this time in Idlib Province near Saraqib. This attack is the sixth such reported instance in the past 30 days in Syria. We implore the international community to speak with one voice, taking every opportunity to publicly pressure the Assad regime, and its supporters, to cease its use of chemical weapons and hold those responsible accountable for these brutal attacks."
