STORY: After months of waiting, the United Nations is finally in Syria to investigate claims of chemical weapons use.
Swedish scientist Ake Sellstrom will lead the 20-member team in determining whether sarin and other toxic nerve agents were used. The team will not be trying to establish who used the weapons though.
