 * REVEALED: The bombshell Russian message intercepted on DAY of Skripal poisonings - Express, April 8, 2018 00:01 am (archive)
 * ''AN ELECTRONIC message to Moscow sent on the day former Russian spy Sergei Skripal and his daughter Yulia were poisoned with a nerve agent in Salisbury included the phrase “the package has been delivered”.


 * Charles Shoebridge @ShoebridgeC on Twitter, April 9, 2018
 * ''Perfectly timed to publish just as 'Assad chemical attack' being reported, UK spy sources briefed UK media to suggest #Skripal poisoning was carried out jointly by Russia & Assad
 * ''NB May suggest a UK spy agency knew of a #Syria chemical incident in advance
 * ''This perhaps significant (pls read all four tweets, feel free to retweet)
 * ''1/4 Yesterday a story from ‘UK security sources’ that tried to implicate both Russia & Syria in #Skripal chem case was perfectly timed to coincide with reports of ‘Syria chem attack’
 * ''2/4 The article was published at 0001 on 8th, so the source briefing was almost certainly before Syria ‘chem attack’, yet article timed to coincide. This may suggest the ‘UK security source’ knew of #Douma chem incident in advance. Yet if so, nothing done to reveal or prevent it.
 * ''3/4 The 0001 publication time also suggests the source requested an embargo so article wouldn’t be published until 8th, after Syria ‘chem attack’ had happened. If published before, wouldn’t coincide with ‘chem attack’, and could have implicated source with prior attack knowledge.
 * ''4/4 A claim of a Skripal Syria chem weapon connection just as an ‘Assad chem attack’ could be a coincidence, as could be the briefing being before the ‘attack’ happened. But see how the article date has now been altered, hiding the implication that briefing must have been before
