Don’t allow terrorists acquire chemical weapons

Kenya and the rest of the world should scale up efforts to prevent terrorist groups in the region and across the globe from acquiring and using dangerous chemical and biological weapons.

This unique threat has acquired more urgency after the recent attack on an Iraqi city of Taza, North of the capital Baghdad, by ISIS using lethal chemical weapons, specifically mustard gas. This is believed to be the first time a militant group is deploying such a deadly weapon in their attacks.
