Syria chemical munitions destroyed

The Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) announced on Friday that the destruction of all Syria's unfilled munitions had been verified.

The watchdog also said that its experts had verified the destruction of parts of weapons productions facility buildings.

The joint UN-OPCW team in Syria aims to destroy the entire chemical weapons program by mid-2014, starting with the removal of the most toxic chemicals by the end of the year.
