Sarin Found In Iraq

|

The Iraq Survey Group confirms that the nerve agent sarin has been found in a 155-millimeter shell attached to an exploded roadside bomb. Sarin was released and two U.S. soldiers have been treated for minor exposure. "It is a weapon that we believe was stocked from the ex-regime time," says Brigadier General Mark Kimmitt, "and it had been thought to be an ordinary artillery shell set up to explode like an ordinary IED… when it exploded it indicated that it actually had some sarin in it."
