Reports: Toxic Gas Dropped On Northern Syrian Town

A helicopter has reportedly dropped barrels suspected to contain chlorine gas on the northern Syrian town of Saraqeb.

A doctor and rescuers say some 30 people were affected by the attack, which occurred late on August 1.

It is not clear who was responsible.

Both sides in Syria's five-year-old civil war have been accused of using chemical agents.

Dr. Abdel Aziz Bareeh, who works in Saraqeb, said two barrels of chlorine gas were dropped on the town.
