Syria still has chemical weapons
[Ynet] Analysis: A massacre by chemical weapons in Syria in 2013 led to Russia and the US forcing Assad to give up on his arsenal of non-conventional weapons. But recent reports suggest that the regime is using Sarin gas against the opposition -- and that the rebels themselves are using chemical weapons as well.New reports emerging from the ground in Syria suggest that despite Assad's assertions in 2013 that he had disposed of his chemical weapons arsenal, his regime continues to fight in the civil war using non-conventional means. The war, which will enter its sixth year in two months' time, has no end in sight. The number of victims of the conflict -- killed, injured, traumatized, etc -- continues to rapidly increase and intensive efforts to bring the two sides to the negotiating table have yet to bear real fruit.
