| [EN.ZAMANALWSL.NET] A new chlorine attack has taken place in Mishmishan village in the Syrian north-western province of Idlib, a monitoring group said Tuesday. The Syrian Network for Human Rights (SNHR) said at least 19 victims suffocating due to chlorine gas attack on Mishmishan village near the captured town of Jisr al-Shughour. Last Friday, chlorine gas bomb on Mishmishan killed two children and left 20 suffocation cases recorded. The chlorine attacks come amid significant gains made in northern Syria by Fatah Army, an alliance of Islamist groups that seized Idlib, the strategic town of Jisr al-Shughour and military bases. Jisr al-Shughour has witnessed a fierce aerial bombardment since early morning. Activists said medics have saved life of a newborn as his mother died of her wounds on Tuesday. |
