Russia has warned of a false-flag chemical attack by members of the Takfiri Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) terrorists and the so-called civil defense group White Helmets targeting Syria’s northwestern Idlib Province.
“The Russian military has received information that Hayat Tahrir al-Sham terrorists are preparing to carry out provocations in the Idlib de-escalation zone by means of poisonous substances. According to informed sources, the terrorists have moved a tanker laden with toxic substances to the town of Atme as they plan to lace their rockets with them,” the deputy head of the ministry's Center for the Reconciliation of Opposing Sides in Syria, Rear Admiral Alexander Vadim Kulit, said.
He added that the Takfiris, in cooperation with White Helmets representatives, intend to stage a false-flag chemical attack in a bid to incriminate Syrian government forces and accuse the troops of using banned munitions in the populated areas.
