BBC World Service - BBC OS, UN Security Council on Syria

It's been nearly seven days since an alleged chemical weapons attack in Douma, Syria

With almost one week of headlines on the alleged chemical weapons attack in the town of Douma, Syria, what will the outcome be of the UN Security Council emergency meeting? We'll speak to correspondents around the world. Also, today the Portuguese parliament has approved a law that will allow people to legally change their gender at the age of 16 without the need to submit a medical report. We'll go to that story. And how many women are in the gaming industry?
