Syria chemical weapons equipment destroyed, says OPCW
2013-11-01
[BBC.CO.UK] Syria's declared equipment for producing, mixing and filling chemical weapons has been destroyed, the international watchdog says.

This comes a day before the deadline set by the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW).

The weapons have been placed under seal, an OPCW front man said.

Inspectors were sent to Syria following allegations, denied by the government, that its forces had used chemical weapons in civilian areas.

#1  I recall NO requirement to destroy equipment, so this whole statement is false.
