Explanation:

Fragment A is incorrect due to use of allege which means claim/assertion. The correct form of the word would be the past participle- alleged.

Fragment B is incorrect due to the use of incorrect form of build. We need to use the present participle- building.

Fragment C is incorrect due to use of around instead of round. The fragment tries to convey that one more round/volley of strikes against Syrian government would soon begin.

Correct statement: The killing of civilians in an alleged use of chemical weapons by the Syrian government, has led to the building of momentum to begin another round of military strikes against the Bashar al-Assad-led government by the United States (US) and its allies.

Hence, option D is correct.
