A new report from the global chemical weapons watchdog found there are “reasonable grounds to believe” the Syrian air force was behind a 2018 chlorine gas attack on a residential part of rebel-held Idlib province.
The Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) concluded that a military helicopter under the control of Syria’s elite Tiger Forces in February 2018 dropped at least one cylinder, dispersing the toxic gas over the Saraqib neighborhood of al-Talil.
