Damascus, April 14 (IANS) About 65 percent of Syria's chemical ******* have been ******* so far, Syria-based joint mission of the UN and the Organisation for the Prohibition of chemical ******* (OPCW) said Monday. The statement said that the 13th consignment of chemical arms was delivered to Syria's Latakia port and was shipped out on cargo ships Monday, raising the total removals to 65 percent, Xinhua reported Monday. Ahmet Uzumcu, director-general of the OPCW, described these movements as "necessary and encouraging," according to the statement. Uzumcu said Syria had reaffirmed its commitment to meeting its obligations, adding that "both the frequency and volumes of deliveries have to increase significantly to restore alignment of actual movements against the projected time frame." The UN Security Council unanimously adopted a resolution in Sept 2013 to rid war-torn Syria of its chemical *******.
