ITALY-US-SYRIA-CONFLICT-WEAPONS-CHEMICAL-MILITARY
Journalists follow the transfer of containers of Syrian chemical weapons from a Danish freighter to a US military ship ahead of their destruction at sea on July 2, 2014 in the port of Gioia Tauro, southern Italy. Once the weapons and chemical materials are on board, the Cape Ray will head "for international waters to begin neutralization of the chemical agents" at sea, Pentagon spokesman Rear Admiral John Kirby said in a statement. Syria has shipped out 1,300 tons of chemical agents. Only the most dangerous elements -- dubbed "priority 1" and used in mustard gas and Sarin -- will be destroyed on board the US ship.
