Moscow calls ‘chemical attack’ in Douma ‘fake news,’ warns against Syrian intervention
Reports of an alleged gas attack in the Syrian town of Douma are ‘fake news’ aimed at justifying potential strikes against Syria, Moscow said. It warned of “dire consequences” in the event of any military interference.
The Russian Foreign Ministry denounced the latest reports about a chemical attack that allegedly affected dozens of civilians in the militant-controlled town of Douma. It said the reports were another example of a “continuous series of fake news about the use of chlorine and other chemical agents by the government forces.”
The ministry pointed out that the source of the reports was the notorious “civil defense” group, the White Helmets, which has been repeatedly accused of having ties to terrorists, as well as other groups based in the US and UK.

Assad, along with the Russians, the Iranians and the Lebanese- has won the ' civil war ' in Syrian. They are mopping up around Damascus. There is no reason for him to use any proscribed munitions. It would be stupid- and he's not.
We'd better find out who IS- or a lot of people are going to die.
