Kerry: Syria's chemical arms use 'moral obscenity'

None

Secretary of State John Kerry says chemical weapons were used in Syria and is accusing President Bashar Assad of destroying evidence. Ratcheting up criticism of Syria's alleged chemical weapons use, Kerry called last week's attack a "moral obscenity" that should shock the conscience of the world.

 

He says the US has additional information about the attack and will make it public in the days ahead and said that shelling the affected area afterward was not the action of a government trying to cooperate with UN investigators trying to assess what happened. (AP)
