双语新闻：联合国：证据显示有人在叙利亚动用化武 UN: 'Convincing Evidence' of Syria Chemical Attack

联合国检查人员说，有明确和令人信服的证据显示上个月有人在叙利亚的一场较大规模的攻击行动中使用了化学武器。那次攻击造成数百人死亡。

媒体报道说，联合国检查人员说，他们收集到的环境、化学和医学样品显示，有人8月21日在大马士革的(Ghouta)戈塔地区使用了装有沙林神经毒气的地对地火箭。

调查员的任务是证实曾经发生过化武攻击，而不是确认使用化武的肇事者。

美国认为，叙利亚政府军动用了化学武器，造成1400多人死亡。叙利亚则表示，责任在反政府武装而不是政府军。

United Nations inspectors say there is "clear and convincing evidence" that chemical weapons were used on a relatively large scale in an attack last month in Syria that killed hundreds of people.

News agencies are reporting the inspectors said collected environmental, chemical and medical samples show "that surface-to-surface rockets containing the nerve agent sarin were used in the Ghouta area of Damascus'' on August 21.

The inspectors were charged with determining if chemical weapons were used and not who unleashed them. The U.S. says Syrian forces were behind the attack which Washington says killed more than 1,400 last month.

Syria says it was rebel fighters, not government forces, who are responsible.
