War in Syria: Isis used mustard gas in Syrian town Marea ‘which killed a baby’

The confidence / confidential report by the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW), which was leaked to the Reuters news agency, says that sulphur mustard – commonly known as mustard gas – was used in the town of Marea on 21 August.
“It is very likely that the effects of sulphur mustard resulted to / in the death of a baby,” it said. At the time, Isis and moderate rebel groups were fighting for control of the town, situated north of Aleppo. The OPCW was not mandated to apportion blame.
