Syria war: 'Chlorine attack' on rebel-held Idlib town

A doctor working for the Union of Medical Care and Relief Organizations (UOSSM), a charity which supports hospitals in rebel-held Syria, told the BBC that Saraqeb was struck by a barrel bomb dropped by a helicopter that had taken off from a nearby government base.

People brought to local hospitals after the attack smelt of chlorine, he said, and suffered breathing problems and irritation in their eyes.

The Syria Civil Defence said it had responded to "an attack with chlorine gas" and that nine people were affected, including three of its rescue workers, commonly known as the White Helmets.

I'm glad that Assad is willing to stand up and fight these terrorists.

They are a non-aligned AID ORGANIZATION that don't care which batch of idiots own what patch of land.

And what does this have to do with Assad's GAS ATTACK on Syrians?

I wonder how long until him and Erdogan see they have more to gain from cooperation than not, and watch NATO still back Erdogan even after he sides with Assad.

I am still wondering, because the first chemichal attack was shown by un ivestigators to be done by the rebels, the second one no one was allowed to inspect the site due to fighting and we had to take the rebels site, this one is blamed on the syrian govt by the rebels, and on the kurds by turkey.

Given that all of the chemichal attacks happen in rebel areas but never isis areas, and that britain sold the rebels the chemichals to make those weapons, and that turkey claims it was the kurds and not syrian govt, one hhas to literally wonder if it had been nothing more than a giant false flag operation for various countries to use as an excuse to stick their hands in a civil war.

Most "false flag" aren't.

A doctor working for the Union of Medical Care and Relief Organizations (UOSSM), a charity which supports hospitals in rebel-held Syria, told the BBC that Saraqeb was struck by a barrel bomb dropped by a helicopter that had taken off from a nearby government base.

What rebels have aircraft that carry barrel bombs?

And the Turks blame everything on the Kurds....

And this was Chlorine gas. The English may have sold Sarin to the Syrian government.


Could Britain have sold sarin chemicals to Assad’s regime?
Campaigners point out that substances used to manufacture the nerve agent were exported to Damascus in the 80s

I would need more witness than one, considering the white hats said the same about the first major chemical attack, despite video showing the rebels launching chemical attacks with makeshift artillery.

On the sarin gas the english may have sold them sarin gas back then, however during the civil war they sold them the chemicals to the rebels to make sarin, and even admitted they did in international court. The british defense was since they did not sell them the final product it was not illegal. Fyi chlorine gas is the simplest of chemical weapons, even guys with towels on their head that can not spell their own name could figure it out, the next simplest being mustard gas,

I included a second witness. A UOSSM doctor.

I agree chlorine gas is easy to make.

I was wondering what your introduction of the Sarin had to do with it. I found links to the British selling to the Syrian government, I will look for links to the sales to rebels.
 
well, let's watch as ole Orange Cheeto gets all teary eyed & then decides to lob in another $100 million worth of cruise missiles into another Syrian air base that won't make a ****ing difference just like it didn't a year ago .................... come on Orange Cheeto ...........

the uossm is nearly directly tied to the white hats though, it would be like taking the word of al quaeda and then when questioned linking al nursa, they are darn near the same group.

on the chemicals, google does show they they sold them to syria in the 80's, it also shows they sold them in 2012 as well, and the british govt as well as the international community have raised questions about it. Also to note many chemical weapons dissapeared from libya and russia had tracked some of the chemical attacks as have being libyan in origin of them weapon, which makes sense since russia sold him much of his stockpiles, and the russians much like any advanced country who makes chemical weapons adds their own secret sauce, making the combination unique for the sole purpose of tracking the origin.

In terms of the recent sales, I am trying to find the wikileaks article involving the go ahead of a british chemical company to sell chemicals to syrian rebels mentioning approval from british and american govts for the go ahead.
