Washington Post columnist David Ignatius quotes US
intelligence sources on a revelation by a Syrian defector that in late
2011, the Syrian army started building special trucks able to transport
and mix chemical weapons. Inside the Mercedes or Volvos, which looked
outwardly like refrigerator trucks, mobile labs were installed to
combine and activate “binary” chemical weapons agents. The defector said
that, six weeks ago, the Syrian opposition secretly handed Lebanese
officials a description of the trucks so that they could watch the
border to make sure they did not cross over and reached Hizballah.
