Russians: No Trace Of Chemical Weapons Found, Gas Baby Photos Were Faked

Experts in radiological, chemical and biological warfare, as well as medics, on Monday inspected the parts of the Eastern Ghouta city of Douma, where an alleged chemical attack supposedly took place on Saturday, the Russian Reconciliation Center for Syria said in a statement.

The specialists “found no traces of the use of chemical agents” after searching the sites, the statement said. The center’s medical specialists also visited a local hospital but found no patients that showed signs of chemical weapons poisoning. “All these facts show… that no chemical weapons were used in the town of Douma, as it was claimed by the White Helmets,” the statement said, referring to the controversial “civil defense” group that was among the first to report about the alleged attack.

If you’ve ever read accounts of the First World War, you’ll know that chemical weapons poisoning is one of the most horrible tortures ever devised by man.

Your lungs bleed and can literally melt, your skin bubbles and peels off (with certain substances), your eyes can be damaged for life, and if you survive the first few days, suicide becomes a serious option just to end the suffering.

But here in this Syrian town we have no victims in the hospitals, and no personnel that could testify about children suffering from dissolved respiratory systems?

I definitely smell hoax.

“All the accusations brought by the White Helmets, as well as their photos… allegedly showing the victims of the chemical attack, are nothing more than a yet another piece of fake news and an attempt to disrupt the ceasefire,” the Reconciliation Center said.
