Capping off an eight-day trip to the Middle East and Africa, secretary of state John Kerry flew into Paris on Monday to see Russian foreign minister Sergey Lavrov and exchange updates on their respective diplomatic efforts.

The meeting coincided with new French reports of chemical weapons use in recent days. Reporters from Le Monde spent two months with rebel groups in the Damascus area and say they witnessed repeated use of poison gas by government forces. One attack is claimed to have taken place as recently as 23 May, in Adra, a zone of very heavy fighting between government forces and the rebels north-east of the capital city.
