Recall
Earlier, the Deep State project recorded cases of chemical weapons use by the Russian military at the Svatove and Bakhmut directions. They noted that the enemy most likely used chloropicrin against the Defense Forces. The use of chemical weapons by the enemy was confirmed by the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
Chloropicrin is a colorless substance with a pungent odor. On contact with the body, it causes inflammation of the eyes, nose, throat, and respiratory tract, and acts as a tear gas. Chloropicrin also poisons water and food. In large quantities, it can lead to death.
In addition, when exposed to fire, chloropicrin can turn into the chemical warfare agent phosgene.
According to the Chemical Weapons Convention, chloropicrin is prohibited for military use.
