Syria's main opposition group accused the government of "massacring" more than 1300 people in chemical weapons attacks near Damascus on Wednesday, prompting demands for an immediate UN inquiry.

The accusation, which was strongly denied by Damascus, came as a team of UN inspectors was in Syria to probe previous allegations of chemical weapons strikes levelled against both sides during the 29-month conflict.

Western governments demanded immediate access for the inspectors to investigate the new allegations. Russia, a longstanding ally of the Damascus regime, echoed the call for an inquiry but said it suspected a "provocation" by the opposition and its foreign backers.

Videos distributed by activists, the authenticity of which could not immediately be verified, showed medics attending to suffocating children and hospitals being overwhelmed.

Just leaves me speechless, while waiting for Syrians escaping these atrocities to be demonised.

its hard to know who to believe on this. there are some reports with counter claims that the free army side might have done it . whoever did it there will be more refugees in neighboring countries.
