We were unable to breathe… due to the shelling.” Anas Al-Khawli’s testimony of the chemical night in Eastern Ghouta

Anas al-Kholi, a member of the Association of Chemical Weapons Victims, speaks to Al Arabiya channel about the details of the attack by Bashar al-Assad’s regime forces on Eastern Ghouta with sarin gas on the night of August 21, 2013. He narrated how the night began with warnings, which the people of Ghouta couldn’t understand or hide. The gas was everywhere, and going upstairs to the rooftops for clean air was impossible as the area was being randomly targeted by rockets after the chemical attack.
