Russia slammed for seeking to disprove Syria chemical attack claims

Russia and Syria have used more than a dozen civilians from Ghouta to support their claims that there was no chemical attack in the region this month. The Russian Embassy in the Netherlands held a briefing in a bid to prove the videos of the alleged chemical weapons attack in Syria was staged. Britain and France have slammed the stunt as an 'obscene masquerade' after images emerged of children struggling to breathe following the suspected chemical attack.
