On August 21, 2013, a deadly chemical attack targeted a district near the Syrian capital Damascus. A study has now challenged the US claim that Syrian government forces carried out that attack.
The study has been conducted by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology-- M-I-T. Based on mathematical calculations, the study examined the range of the improvised rocket used in the attack, saying it was too short to have been launched from government controlled areas. The M-I-T report concludes that based on the firing range and the troop locations, all possible launching points within a two-kilometer-radius were in insurgent-controlled areas. The report goes on to challenge the US Secretary of State's key assessments of the chemical attack that he presented to the American people last August in an effort to muster support for a military attack on Syria.
