Terrorists’ Chemical Weapons Expert Escapes from Northwestern Syria to Turkey
The Arabic-language al-Mayadeen TV Channel quoted a well-informed source as disclosing that one of the commanders of Tahrir al-Sham that supervises chemical-armed missiles has escaped Jisr al-Shughour to Turkey.
It went on to say that the commander has left the terrorist group’s missile unit for Turkey, but said the missiles are still stored in the village of Halouz in Jisr al-Shughour.
The TV channel said that the missiles have been armed with chemical warheads with a high degree of lethality.
Tahrir al-Sham, White Helmets and their foreign backers are preparing to stage a false-flag chemical attack in Northwestern Syria to later accuse the Damascus forces and pave the ground for the US-led coalition forces’ raid on Syria ahead of the government forces’ major operation in Idlib province.
Russian Defense Ministry’s Spokesperson Igor Konashenkov said on Saturday that the military obtained “irrefutable” data that terrorist groups, including Al-Nusra Front and the infamous White Helmets met in Idlib province last week.
The Russian military revealed that the militants plotted the final scenarios for the chemical attacks that the Syrian army expected to make in the cities of Jisr al-Shughour, Saraqib, Taftnaz and Sarmin.
“Full readiness of all participants involved in the staging of the provocations is be ensured by the evening of September 8,” Konashenkov stated, adding that the terrorists are to receive a “special” signal from some “foreign friends of Syrian revolution” to launch the operation.
The statement comes after earlier warnings from Moscow’s that militants are preparing to stage a chemical attack in the Syrian province to give the Western coalition a pretext to strike Syria. In August, the Defense Ministry said that eight canisters of chlorine had been delivered to a village near Jisr al-Shughour city, and that a foreign-trained group of militants had also arrived in the area to simulate a rescue operation after the staged attack.
The US and its allies have repeatedly stressed its readiness to strike Syria if any attack takes place, ignoring all Russia’s warnings. Washington’s envoy to the UN Nikki Haley recently stated that she already knows the perpetrators in case a chemical incident takes place in Syria.
