News Wrap: Pompeo says Assad regime used chlorine as chemical weapon

In our news wrap Thursday, Sec. of State Mike Pompeo said that among the “innumerable atrocities” committed by the Assad regime, the U.S. has concluded that Syrian government forces used chlorine as a chemical weapon during a battle with insurgents in May. Also, the death toll from a severe lung illness tied to vaping has risen to 12 people in the U.S., while the number of cases is now above 800.
