MIDDLE EAST — Some bad stuff went down on Tuesday in a country that YouTube doesn’t like us to mention, when suspected government jets dropped nerve gas on their own people. <br /> <br />A toxic chemical suspected to be sarin gas was reportedly dropped on the town of Khan Sheikhoun in Idlib starting at 6:30 a.m. on Tuesday, CNN reported. <br /> <br />Sarin can be inhaled, ingested or absorbed through the skin. Once inside the body, it attacks the central nervous system. <br /> <br />Five minutes after the first atrocity, three more airstrikes took place, but no descriptions of gas were reported. <br /> <br />Four hours later, a makeshift clinic and a hospital where the injured were being treated were targeted in further chemical atrocities. At least 72 lives were lost and more than were 100 injured, according to the Guardian. <br /> <br />Activists and medics from Doctors Without Borders said the symptoms of the injured were consistent with a nerve agent like sarin. <br /> <br />Footage and photos that emerged from the town showed a truly horrific scene. <br /> <br />The local government has denied responsibility for the atrocities. Instead, the regime said religiously-motivated virgin seekers were responsible. <br /> <br />Well, it didn’t use those words exactly, but again, we don’t want to trigger YouTube and have our video demonetized. <br /> <br />Russia also said it had nothing to do with it. Turkey, however, said it had evidence of a chemical atrocity.
