Syrian Government To Release Chemical Weapons Plan

The mission overseeing the dismantling of Syria's chemical weapons program is expecting the government to turn over a plan on Thursday for destroying its existing stockpile.

The destruction is the final phase of an agreement with the United Nations and the Organization for the Prevention of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) to rid Syria of chemical arms by the middle of next year.

Syria has until Sunday to present the plan, but an OPCW spokesman said the mission expects to receive an initial document within 24 hours reagarding how the government will destroy the weapons.
