Perpetrators of attack on ex-Russian double agent 'identified'
Arutz Sheva Staff, 19/07/18
Investigators in the UK say they have identified the perpetrators of the attack on former Russian double agent Sergei Skripal and his daughter, Yulia.
The two were attacked in March at their home in the city of Salisbury in England with a Russian-developed nerve agent called Novichok, and rushed to the hospital after being found slumped on a bench in a shopping center.
A source close to the investigation told the UK's Press Association that "Investigators believe they have identified the suspected perpetrators of the Novichok attack through CCTV and have cross-checked this with records of people who entered the country around that time.”
According to the source, investigators were “sure” the suspects are Russian.

US blasts attack on Sergei and Yulia Skripal
Guy Cohen, 10/08/18

The statement comes two days after the US announced sanctions over the attack. US state department spokeswoman Heather Nauert said Wednesday it had been determined that Russia "has used chemical or biological weapons in violation of international law, or has used lethal chemical or biological weapons against its own nationals".
