http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-16650192 Former Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi had an undeclared stockpile of chemical weapons, the body that oversees a global ban on such munitions has said.
The Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) said inspectors visited Libya this week.
Among the chemical munitions they found were stocks of sulphur mustard agent, which can cause severe blistering.
Libya's new rulers told the group about the previously unknown stocks last year after removing Gaddafi from power.
"The inspectors verified the declared chemical weapons, which consist of sulphur mustard agent that is not loaded into munitions," the OPCW said.
"At the same time, at the request of the Libyan authorities, the inspectors examined munitions, mainly artillery shells, which they determined are chemical munitions and hence declarable."
