Dailymail stated that Russia claims the gas attack was fake. “Russia has claimed there is ‘growing evidence’ that the gas attack which killed 87 Syrian civilians was staged.” If it was staged then why did people get hurt and do something so deadly like that.
“International chemical weapons inspectors have found “incontrovertible” evidence that saran gas, or a similar substance, was used in a chemical attack in Syria earlier this month that killed 89 people.” reported CNN. Emergency.cdc.gov has stated that “Sarin is a clear, colorless, and tasteless liquid that has no odor in its pure form. However, saran can evaporate into a vapor (gas) and spread into the environment.”

I liked that you reported on this topic. I don’t think that many people in middle school know what was happening.

This was an interesting article because it shows the fact that even though we live here easily with minor problems, on the other side of the globe there are many major problems.

I was surprised to learn from reading your article that it had a little bit of suspense in it because some people are claiming that Syria STAGED the attack. Also, I really like how you used a lot of quotes from different sources in your article.
