Danish ship Ark Futura arrives in the port of Gioia Tauro, southern Italy, on July 2, 2014 for the transfer of chemical weapons from Syria to be destroyed. Once the weapons and chemical materials are on board, the Cape Ray will head "for international waters to begin neutralization of the chemical agents" at sea, Pentagon spokesman Rear Admiral John Kirby said in a statement. Syria has shipped out 1,300 tons of chemical agents. Only the most dangerous elements -- dubbed "priority 1" and used in mustard gas and Sarin -- will be destroyed on board the US ship.
