Russia will give the United Nations Security Council evidence that Syrian rebels were responsible for last month's chemical weapons attack, Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov has said.
Syria has supplied evidence implicating rebels for the 21st August chemical weapons attack to Russia, which Lavrov has yet not seen.
Lavrov said there was plenty of evidence that pointed to rebel involvement in chemical attacks, including the Damascus assault.
A United Nations report recently released concluded the nerve agent sarin was used in the attack in Damascus, which the United States has blamed on Bahsar al-Assad regime, the BBC reports.
Russia has called the report one-sided and biased. The UN has hit back, saying its findings are 'indisputable'.

According to the report, the UN report did not apportion blame for the attack, but has culminated in a deal for Syria to hand over its chemical arsenal by mid-2014.
The UK, France and the US now want the disarmament deal to be made into a UN resolution backed by the threat of military force.
Russia, which has repeatedly cast doubt on the whether the regime carried out the attacks, has objected to any resolution authorising force.
