Russia denounces possible chemical attack in Syria

Moscow, Oct 1 (Prensa Latina) The West, Ukraine, and terrorist groups based in Syria are planning to stage a chemical attack in the Idlib province, the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service warned on Tuesday. The intelligence service stated in a press release that the Western special services are preparing to use chemical weapons to blame Moscow and Damascus, Sputnik reported.

According to the plan, the terrorists would use drones to drop and detonate a container loaded with chlorine during a Russian Aerospace Forces attack on their facilities.

“The areas east of Idlib are considered the most likely place for such a provocation,” the statement noted.

Civil defense volunteers known as the White Helmets, in turn, have videotaped “the consequences of the incident” and the alleged testimonies from civilians “to blame Syria and Russia for what happened”, the statement added.

The Foreign Intelligence Service pointed out that the governments of the United States and the United Kingdom are aware that they have failed in their attempt to inflict a strategic defeat on Russia in the Ukraine conflict.
