Babies and young children are among those killed and injured in an apparent chemical attack in Syria .
Horrific pictures emerged showing infants foaming at the mouth and gasping for breath after a barrel bomb containing poisonous gas was allegedly dropped on civilians in Douma.
Video posted on social media showed victims, including several children, being treated with medicine via inhaler in an emergency clinic. Many were being hosed down with water.
At least 41 people, including children, are believed to have been killed in the attack on Saturday.
Syrian state media denied government forces had launched any chemical attack as soon as the reports began circulating.
