Chlorine gas poisoning victims get the same treatment as reported repeated incidents of attacks in Syria before.


DAMASCUS - SYRIA. Networking Group for Human Rights in Syria, yesterday claimed another attack of chemical weapons believed to have occurred in the northwestern Idlib.

According to witnesses several helicopters owned by government troops rescued at least two barrels containing chlorine gas on the town of Saraqeb to cause about 12 residents suffer from shortness of breath.

In a statement, the head of Syria's main opposition reveals he received the report during a closed and informal meetings with the UN Security Council (UNSC).

"I urge UNSC to act decisively against the resolution issued by them against the use of chemical weapons in Syria, including the new force in the last month," said the president of the Syrian National Coalition (SNC), Khaled Khoja.

Previously, many people have accused the Syrian government responsible for orchestrating the attack of chemical weapons since the civil war erupted in the country in 2011, but was denied by the regime of President Bashar al-Assad.

It is understood that chlorine gas has not been declared as chemical weapons under an agreement with the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW), which stipulates all Syria's chemical weapons destroyed by the date set by international agencies in 2013.
