The Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) says it has found dozens of undeclared chemical weapons in Syria in recent weeks. According to the watchdog, the weapons include chemical bombs and rockets linked to the Assad era that were not previously declared under Syria’s chemical weapons obligations.
The reports state that the findings were made by the OPCW as part of its verification and investigative activities. The OPCW says the discovery involves “dozens” of munitions, suggesting a larger stockpile or cache than previously accounted for.
Both outlets describe the same core information: the OPCW identifies these chemical munitions as undeclared and associates them with the Assad period. The reporting does not provide additional details on the weapons’ specific locations, quantities beyond “dozens,” or timelines for removal or destruction. The OPCW’s assessment and next steps are not detailed in the provided summaries.
