Russia accuses Syrian rebels of planing Idlib chemical attack

Russia has called for an emergency UN Security Council meeting regarding a possible offensive in Syria’s Idlib province.

Earlier, Russia warned that rebels might stage a chemical attack, and then blame it on the forces of President Bashar al-Assad.

The US has vowed a strong reaction to any chemical or biological attack.

Idlib is the last remaining opposition stronghold – and it’s encircled by Syrian government forces.
