Syria Willing, Able to Use Chemical Weapons in Future Attacks - US Intel Chief
14:09 GMT 23.05.2017 (Updated: 11:42 GMT 06.08.2022) The Syrian government likely still has the desire and capability to use chemical weapons in future attacks, US Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats said in testimony before the Senate Armed Services Committee on Tuesday.
WASHINGTON (Sputnik) — On April 4, the National Coalition for Syrian Revolutionary and Opposition Forces said the Syrian government had carried out a chemical weapons attack in the Khan Sheikhoun area of Idlib province.
"Syria is probably both willing and able to use chemical weapons in future attacks," Coats stated.
The Organization for the Prevention of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) said its analysis of samples from people killed and injured in the attack determined sarin or a sarin-like gas was used.
Damascus denied any involvement in the incident and the Syrian army said it does not possess chemical weapons.
