North Korea 'providing materials to Syria chemical weapons factories'

North Korea has been sending equipment to Syria that could be used to make chemical weapons, a UN report says.

Some 40 previously unreported shipments were made between 2012 and 2017, the report found. Materials included acid-resistant tiles, valves and pipes.

The leaked report says North Korean missile specialists have been seen at Syrian weapon-making centres.

The allegations follow new reports of chlorine being used by Syrian forces, which the government denies.

    My apologies for breaching your safe space. NK is a bastion of communist utopia where everybody has their every need met without ever having to put forth the slightest effort. You can go back to railing against all those evil capitalists who paid your way through college now.

    Oh, don't worry. I'm sure the neoliberals will be able to achieve the same results with "free market" capitalism.

    War is peace. Up is down. Short is long. Cue the floating, disembodied head of Colonel Sanders.
