If the WMD are in artillery shells, that would make them operable assuming the agent hasn't degraded significantly.I recall when the US destroyed our own stockpiles of chemical weapons. They had been stored for many years, but still were highly dangerous.

There are still Chemical weapon shells (Mustard gas) from the First World War that are a significant danger in Belgium.

"I recall when the US destroyed our own stockpiles of chemical weapons."They have not all been destroyed. They are in the process of burning them now at the Umatilla, Oregon Chemical Depot. They constantly have warnings about what to do should there be a problem.
