Concerns Mount Over Syria's Chemical Weapons Amidst New Testimonies

TL;DR Summary
For the first time, survivors of the 2018 chemical attack in Douma, Syria, are speaking out about the tragedy that claimed the lives of many, including Tawfiq Diam's family. The Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) reported that Syrian forces dropped chlorine gas cylinders, killing at least 43 people, though locals claim the death toll was higher. Despite denials from the Assad regime and Russia, survivors demand fresh investigations and justice, as previous testimonies were allegedly coerced by Syrian intelligence.
