Aleppo – A Syrian Arab Army unit on Tuesday uncovered a warehouse containing toxic chemicals which terrorists had used to make shells inside a school in Hanano area in Aleppo.

While army engineering units were searching for landmines and IEDs and dismantling them in the areas to which security and stability have been restored, they uncovered a large warehouse set up by terrorists inside Sana’a Mhaidali School in Hanano area, finding large amounts of highly-toxic chemicals inside it which terrorists had been using to make shells containing toxic materials, SANA reported.
