Field sources have confirmed that the nerve agent sarin was used by Bashar Assad's forces in an attack on the Islamic Front in Adra city, near Damascus on Sunday, leaving four rebels dead and twenty affected.
The victims' symptoms were similar to the 21 August, 2013 chemical attack, as described by medics, including shortness of breath, disorientation, runny nose, eye irritation, blurred vision, nausea, vomiting, general weakness, and eventual loss of consciousness.
The attack last summer that killed more than 1,400 people was the world's worst human rights violation of 2013, the U.S. administration said last week.
