Syria strike evidence points to nerve gas attack -experts

Diplomats have clashed over whether Bashar Assad's government was responsible for the chemical weapons attack in northern Syria, as US intelligence, Doctors Without Borders and the United Nations' health agency said evidence pointed to nerve gas exposure.

The Trump administration and other world leaders said the Syrian government was to blame, but Moscow, a key ally of Assad, said the assault was caused by a Syrian air strike that hit a rebel stockpile of chemical arms. More than 80 people were killed.
