BEIRUT (Reuters) - Opposition activists have posted a video of what they say is chlorine gas floating through the streets of a Syrian village and they accuse President Bashar al-Assad of mounting a chemical weapons campaign.

Activists and medical sources said the village of Kfar Zeita, in the central province of Hama 125 miles (200 km) north of Damascus, has been the focus of a two-month-old assault in which chlorine gas canisters have been dropped out of helicopters.
