We remain seriously concerned by ongoing regime military activity, particularly in eastern Ghouta. We are aware of clashes between pro-regime forces and opposition groups, following heavy bombardment and the imposition of starvation sieges by the regime in the area. Although the majority of fighters are from non-extremist groups, we are aware of reports of involvement of Hayat Tahrir al Sham (HTS) in these clashes. In all our engagement with the opposition we urge them to adhere to the ceasefire, adhere to international humanitarian law and to avoid cooperation with HTS.<\/p>
The UK's political and practical support to the opposition is provided to those moderate groups who are standing up to both the tyranny of Asad and terrorist threat of Daesh, and have made clear their commitment to a negotiated settlement to the conflict. The UK provides no support to HTS and does not provide weapons to any party in Syria.<\/p>"}

There have been numerous allegations of chemical weapons use in Syria in the present conflict, with over 250 attacks alleged since the chemical weapons attack in Ghouta in August 2013. The Joint Investigative Mechanism, a joint UN-Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons body established by the UN Security Council, looked at nine specific cases from 2014 and 2015 in detail. It attributed responsibility to the Syrian regime in three cases and to Daesh in one. The vast majority of reported chemical weapons use involves allegations of attacks by the Syrian regime, largely consistent with regime capabilities and with incidents the Joint Investigation Mechanism has attributed to the regime.<\/p>"}
