繼公開在伊拉克首都巴格達發現沙林毒氣彈後,美軍官員周一再透露,美軍早於本月初亦在巴格達發現含有芥子毒氣的炮彈,是「十天內第二次發現用於爆炸裝置的化學武器」。

Some experts suggested that the two shells, which were unmarked, date back to the first Persian Gulf War. The mustard gas shell may have been one of 550 projectiles that Saddam failed to account for in his weapons declaration shortly before Operation Iraqi Freedom began. Iraq also failed to account for 450 aerial bombs containing mustard gas.
