Sarin and chlorine likely used in Syrian attack, watchdog says

The global chemical weapons watchdog has said the nerve agent sarin and toxic chemical chlorine were "very likely" used as weapons in two attacks in central Syria in March 2017.

The Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OCPW) said its fact-finding mission probing alleged attacks in Syria found that "sarin was very likely used as a chemical weapon in the south of Ltamenah" in Hama province on March 24.
