Ok, I’ve been asked a few times who this IIT are I’m writing about. I appreciate not everyone may know or care.

The #OPCW-IIT (Investgation and Identification Team) is a ‘subgroup’ of the OPCW that was setup by NATO countries to circumvent the UNSC thus avoiding 🇷🇺 & 🇨🇳 vetos.
The IIT came about after the dissolving of the highly politicised JIM (Joint Investigative Mechanism). The demise of the JIM came about after their appalling investigation into #KhanSheikhkoun was shown to be scientifically and evidentially fraudulent.
Russia had agreed to renewing the JIM’s mandate pending several changes that would prohibit further western influence of its investigations. Shockingly, the west objected and so the JIM was binned. The UK & US immediately set about finding a replacement and they setup the IIT.
The purpose of this NATO grouplet is to keep pressure on Russia over Syria and add pseudo-diplomatic cover to further sanctions on the Syrian people for daring to resist their regime change attempts.
When viewing the structure of the IIT and the nationalities of its staff, the agenda becomes clear. From my information all staff members are from NATO countries bar one, however she works for the MOD in the Netherlands, a NATO country.
When we look at the groups and organisations the IIT worked with for their report we see clearer evidence of their agenda:
Tobias Schneider, Hamish de Bretton-Gordon, Eliot Higgins, Forensic Architecture, SNHR etc etc
There was no balance to their investigation. There was no opposing views sought from experts and no evidence of any claim they made presented. This group made little effort to conceal their intentions. Their agenda is clear and expect the same for future reports.
