Accused procuring metals for Syrian missiles that carry chemical agents, the owner of Hournieh & Sons said the allegations were false.

Western countries, meanwhile, used sanctions to cut his regime off from the materials required to produce them, and France went after what it alleged was one of the SSRC’s suppliers.In February 2017, 53 tons of aluminum the Houraniehs had ordered from an Egyptian supplier were seized at the port of Beirut.

That September, Houranieh & Sons took steps to acquire 17,000 tonnes of aluminum and steel needed for Fateh-110 missiles and rocket engines, France further alleged. The alleged incidents coincided with rising concerns about chemical attacks. On April 4, 2017, Assad’s forces fired rockets loaded with the nerve agent sarin into rebel-held Khan Sheikhoun, killing 90.

The so-called Houranieh Group “uses the proceeds of financial investments made in France to finance its contribution to the proliferation of chemical weapons,” France alleged. He said he was never warned he might be helping to arm Assad with chemical weapons. Instead, he maintained that he was just sanctioned and asked to prove his innocence.“At no point was I told that ‘this is going for a ballistic program, this is going for a chemical program,'” he said.
