(IraqiNews.com) Australian Foreign Minister Julie Bishop warned that ISIS has experts in chemical weapons, noting that the militant group may be able to develop a “bacterial” bomb.
Bishop revealed, according to the British newspaper “Daily Mail”, it is likely that ISIS has technical expertise to refine raw materials and build dirty chemical weapons .
Bishop warned that the resent actions of ISIS elements revealed “serious efforts” to develop chemical weapons.
“The Australian government is sure that ISIS has used weapons containing toxic chemicals, including sarin gas and chlorine gas, over the past four years,” Bishop added.
ISIS announced last month in an article published in its magazine “Dabiq” that it is able to buy nuclear weapons from Pakistan within a year, threatening the implementation of a major operation.
It is worth mentioning that the United States announced last January the killing of a person described as chemical weapons expert belonging to ISIS.
