A team of international experts began the process of destroying Syria’s chemical weapons on Sunday, according to the United Nations.

The group consists of international inspectors from the Netherlands-based watchdog Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons along with a U.N. team. Under their supervision, “Syrian personnel used cutting torches and angle grinders to destroy or disable a range of items,” said Eri Kaneko, associate spokeswoman for U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moons office.

“This included missile warheads, aerial bombs and mixing and filling equipment. The process will continue in the coming days,” she added.
