BEIRUT: A team of UN chemical weapons experts are on their way out of Syria after two weeks there. 

Officials at the Damascus hotel where they were staying have told The Associated Press the UN personnel departed early Saturday and were believed to be en route to neighboring Beirut. 

The UN experts carried out a fourth and final day of inspections Friday as they sought to determine precisely what happened in last week's alleged chemical weapons attack. 

The team took samples from victims of the August 21 attack for examination in laboratories in Europe.
