‘Incontrovertible’ results sarin gas used in Syria: watchdog

THE HAGUE, Netherlands –The head of a global arms watchdog says Wednesday that “incontrovertible” test results from an alleged chemical strike in Syria shows sarin gas or a similar substance had been used.

Samples from 10 victims of the April 4 attack on Khan Sheikhoun analyzed at four laboratories “indicate exposure to sarin or a sarin-like substance … the analytical results already obtained are incontrovertible,” says Ahmet Uzumcu, head of the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons.
