Propaganda campaign on ‘Damascus using chemical weapons’ is launched“As we warned a few days ago, a media propaganda campaign on the ‘use of chemical weapons by Damascus’ has
begun,”Zakharova wrote on Facebook, RT reported.
Zakharova’s post was accompanied by a screenshot from a video being shared on social media allegedly showing a hospital in Eastern Ghouta. The speaker in the video claims the people he is filming have been affected by “chlorine gas used by the regime.”
“There will be more of such videos, and they will be of different quality – either low-grade, like this one or of Hollywood level. There will be many fakes, the planned campaign is a massive one,” the Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman said.
A militant group on Saturday accused government forces of using chlorine gas against its fighters East of Damascus.
Meanwhile, the General Command of the Syrian Armed Forces stressed that claims made by some terrorist-affiliated websites about the Syrian Army's using of chlorine gas against militants of Faylaq al-Rahman in Ein Terma region in Eastern Damascus are false and baseless.
The Spokesperson for the United States administration had accused Syria of preparing to stage a chemical attack in the country, threatening that Washington would make Damascus pay “a heavy price.”
The Iranian foreign ministry warned that any US aggression against Syria will further deteriorate the security situation in the region and help the terrorists.
