Russian troops are using chemical weapons at the front against the Ukrainian Armed Forces. In particular, we are talking about the Kharkiv direction.

This was stated by Oles Maliarevych, Deputy Commander of the Achilles battalion of the 92nd Separate Mechanized Brigade named after Koshovyi Otaman Ivan Sirko, on Kyiv24.

 

The use of chemical weapons at the front

According to Maliarevych, Russians are using various types of chemical weapons in the direction of Kharkiv. In particular, the enemy is using ammonia, chlorine and phosphorus bombs. 

"There are still a lot of "interesting" thighs left from the soviet times. Maybe they have invented something new," — Maliarevych said. 

It should be noted that chemical weapons are any munitions that contain toxins or chemicals that attack the human body. Their use is strictly prohibited by the Chemical Weapons Convention.

As a reminder, in the temporarily occupied Horlivka, the Russians have set up a dangerous chemical dump on the territory of a chemical plant. 

Previously, we reported that the occupiers are forcing Ukrainian schoolchildren in Mariupol to make FPV drones for their army.
