It added that the Syrian Arab Republic, while condemning the use of the toxic gases against the Syrian people by the terrorist groups and their masters which claimed the lives of innocent civilians, it reiterates its readiness to cooperate with the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons and its delegation which is present now in Syria to investigate into these crimes and others.
“Syria also calls on hostile sides to stop doing mean practices and take all measures to unveil those who are responsible for them as the main victim of such practices is the Syrian people and civilians,” the statement added.
