Coping with Syria’s Chemical Weapons Legacy: An Interview with Mohamad Katoub, Syrian Ambassador to the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons | Arms Control Association

Richard Martin-Nielsen 11h ago

“I welcome #Syria’s cooperation and support for this deployment. The Syrian authorities now need to declare and destroy what has been found, under the Secretariat’s verification and to continue supporting the Secretariat in unveiling the full scope of the chemical weapons programme they have inherited.” - @opcw DG Fernando Arias

☠️Biggest find by OPCW since fall of the Assad regime: "dozens of undeclared chemical munitions such as aerial bombs and rockets as well as separately found chemicals and related equipment" at undeclared locations in northern coastal and central regions.

Ep 207 Tear Gas: How can a chemical weapon be “humane”?

Tear gas is an expected, normalized part of protests today. But its use in international war is banned. How can that be? That’s just one of the questions we investigate in this episode. First, we take you through the long history of tear gas and its emergence alongside deadlier chemical weapons before discussing how its use became routine, fueled by industry interests. Then we delve into what’s in tear gas that causes the painful physical reaction and consider whether claims of non-toxicity are backed up by research (spoilers: not really). This is an info-packed episode that will leave you with many questions answered, but not all of those answers will be satisfying.

"The overlap between widespread exposure to war remnants and the emergence of unusual health conditions raises urgent questions about long-term effects, particularly for future generations."
