Israeli President Isaac Herzog claimed that directions for creating a chemical weapon were found on a USB drive recovered from a Hamas terrorist involved in the October 7 attacks.
The USB drive contained pages from a 2003 al Qaeda manual, including a diagram for a "device for dispersing cyanide agents."
Two pages from the document on the USB drive were provided, featuring a crude sketch of a device made from household items and chemical agents.
The USB drive also included a manual for abducting captives and instructions for using chemical substances for mass murder.
CNN couldn't autonomously check the cases or the items in the reports.
The Israeli government has not demonstrated that Hamas assailants had the capacity to do a synthetic assault in the October 7 episode.
President Herzog suggested that the documents revealed an ideological connection between Hamas and other Islamist terror groups.
The revelation of these records raises worries about the potential for fear monger gatherings to access and utilize substance weapons.
It is fundamental to examine further to decide the legitimacy of the cases and the degree of the danger.
This present circumstance highlights the continuous difficulties in countering psychological warfare and the requirement for worldwide collaboration in tending to such dangers.
