Chemical weapons watchdog meets to OK Syria plan

The global chemical weapons watchdog is meeting to approve a definitive plan for ridding Syria of its declared stockpile of toxic chemicals in just over six months.

The Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons already has drawn up a timeline for the destruction of Syria's poison gas and nerve agent program by mid-2014. Tuesday's meeting is expected to sign off on details of how exactly the unprecedented disarmament operation will happen. (AP)
