Russia intensifying use of #ChemicalWeapons in Ukraine, Dutch intelligence reports
#Russian #troops use banned #chemical agents to panic #Ukrainian forces, forcing #soldiers from dugouts, trenches with gas grenades dropped by #drones, making them easy targets for drone or artillery attacks
Now intelligence has confirmed the use of #chloropicrin — a substance that can kill in high concentrations in enclosed spaces.

"We specifically linked the use of #chloropicrin to improvised munitions [#IEDs], such as filled light bulbs & empty bottles that are hung from a drone. When it comes to #teargas, we see that they are also misusing & converting existing munitions to act as the carrier for the gas," he said.
Chloropicrin is listed as a banned choking agent by #OPCW, which was created to implement & monitor compliance with the 1997 #ChemicalWeapons Convention (#CWC).

The head of the #Netherlands Military #Intelligence Agency (#MIVD), Peter Reesink, said the conclusions followed "our own independent intelligence, so we have observed it ourselves based on our own investigations."
The #UnitedStates first accused #Russia of using #chloropicrin, a chemical compound more toxic than riot control agents & first used by Germany during WWI, in May last year during the #Biden admin.

#Russia is using toxic chemical weapons, wrecking a ban it helped create: With the Kremlin’s activity in Ukraine, leaders in Russia and elsewhere will feel even less compunction about breaching norms.
"The 1993 Chemical Weapons Convention was one of the most important disarmament treaties to follow the Cold War, one of several that reduced tensions and built norms discouraging some of war’s many horrors. With the support of the Soviet Union and later Russia, it eliminated an entire class of weapons using chemical agents. But in Ukraine, Russia is now using chemical weapons it once agreed to outlaw.
The State Department announced on Wednesday that Russia has used a chemical agent, #chloropicrin, against Ukrainian forces, in violation of the treaty. Chloropicrin is a kind of tear gas, banned for use in wartime, which also has commercial applications as a soil fumigant in agriculture. …"

State department officials said #Russia used the choking agent #chloropicrin to win "battlefield gains" over #Ukraine.
The allegations, which US officials said were not an "isolated" incident, would contravene the #ChemicalWeapons Convention (CWC), which Russia signed.
The #Kremlin rejected the accusations, calling them "baseless".

Russia used chemical weapons in Ukraine
#Chloropicrin is often used as an herbicide. Exposure to its vapors can cause severe irritation to the skin, eyes, and, if inhaled, internal organs.
Although less lethal than other #ChemicalWeapons, it was used extensively in World War I before the 1925 Geneva Protocol prohibited the use of chemical and biological weapons in war.

The #US on Wednesday accused #Russia of violating the international chemical weapons ban by deploying the choking agent #chloropicrin against Ukrainian troops and using riot control agents "as a method of warfare" in #Ukraine.
"The use of such chemicals is not an isolated incident and is probably driven by Russian forces' desire to dislodge Ukrainian forces from fortified positions and achieve tactical gains on the battlefield," the State Department said in a statement.
