==North Korea== Kwon Hyok, a former head of security at [[Camp 22]], described laboratories equipped with gas chambers for [[Asphyxiant gas|suffocation gas]] experiments, in which three or four people, normally a family, are the experimental subjects.<ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.theguardian.com/korea/article/0,2763,1136483,00.html |title=Revealed: the gas chamber horror of North Korea's gulag |first=Antony |last=Barnett |date=31 January 2004 |newspaper=The Guardian |access-date=14 December 2016 |archive-date=24 May 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200524153555/https://www.theguardian.com/world/2004/feb/01/northkorea |url-status=live}}</ref><ref>[http://freekorea.us/2007/02/18/holocaust-now-looking-down-into-hell-at-camp-22/ Video testimonials by former guards and prisoners at Camp 22] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071024121846/http://freekorea.us/2007/02/18/holocaust-now-looking-down-into-hell-at-camp-22/ |date=2007-10-24}}, where the experiments are said to have occurred, with Google Earth images Camp 22 and other camps</ref> After the chambers are sealed and poison is injected through a tube, while scientists observe from above through glass. In a report reminiscent of an earlier account of a family of seven, Kwon claims to have watched one family of two parents, a son and a daughter die from suffocating gas, with the parents trying to save the children using [[mouth-to-mouth resuscitation]] for as long as they had the strength. Kwon's testimony was supported by documents from Camp 22 describing the transfer of prisoners designated for the experiments. The documents were identified as genuine by Kim Sang Hun, a London-based expert on Korea and human rights activist.<ref name="bbc01">{{cite news |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/programmes/this_world/3440771.stm |title=Within prison walls |access-date=2009-12-15 |author=Olenka Frenkiel |date=January 30, 2004 |publisher=BBC News |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090623201644/http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/programmes/this_world/3440771.stm |archive-date=June 23, 2009}}</ref>
