Syrian activists say they are smuggling body tissue from dead victims of a suspected chemical weapons attack outside of the capital Damascus, to take them to a United Nations weapons inspection team staying in a hotel nearby.
Abu Nidal, an anti-government activist said, \"The UN team spoke with us and since then we prepared samples of hair, skin and blood and smuggled them back into Damascus with trusted couriers\".
Opposition fighters accuse President Bashar al-Assad forces of firing rockets laden with a chemical gas in the suburbs of capital, on Wednesday.
Foreign nations have said the use of chemical weapons was a red-line in terms of intervention, and have been urging Assad\'s government to allow UN inspectors to visit suspected sites where the bombs exploded.
