Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapon (OPCW) on Friday (local time) revealed that chlorine was used during the April 2018 chemical attack in Syria's Douma.

"The evaluation and analysis of all the above-referenced information gathered by the FFM provide reasonable grounds that the use of a toxic chemical as a weapon has taken place on 7 April 2018. This toxic chemical contained reactive chlorine. The toxic chemical was likely molecular chlorine," the OPCW said in a statement.
