Russia claims that a video featuring a child being doused in liquid following the Syria 'chemical weapons attack' is fake news.
The country says it has uncovered hard evidence to back up the claim over the video that triggered the West's air strikes on Syria.
In the footage an 11-year-old boy is being doused in water but it is alleged that he was tricked into taking part, and his father alleged hungry participants were given “dates, biscuits and rice”.
Moscow insists there was no chemical attack on Douma, and that Western-backed NGO White Helmets staged the footage.
