Terrorists tried to blow up containers of toxic substances in the Syrian Saraqib, TASS reported referring to Russian Reconciliation Center for Syria.

To disrupt the advance of the Syrian government forces in the western quarters of Saraqib and subsequently charge them with the use of chemical weapons, on March 2 this night, a group of terrorists of up to 15 people attempted to detonate high-explosive ammunition along with tanks filled with poisonous chemicals, the center said.

However, due to the lack of experience and skills in handling toxic substances, the militants violated the tightness of one of the tanks, leading to a leak. Thus, terrorists received severe chemical poisoning, having failed to carry out the undermining of ammunition and implement a provocation.
