Putin using chemical weapons in Ukraine? German and Dutch intel make shocking claim against Russia
In a stunning revelation, Dutch and German intelligence agencies have reported that Russia is using banned chemical weapons in Ukraine. The findings, based on independent investigations, include reports of choking agents dropped by drones to flush Ukrainian soldiers out of trenches, exposing them to deadly gunfire. Dutch Defence Minister Ruben Brekelmans and the German BND say this is part of a disturbing trend, the normalisation of chemical warfare on the battlefield. Ukraine has reported over 9,000 incidents involving toxic substances, including chloropicrin, a WWI-era chemical more toxic than riot control agents. However, Russia has denied the use of such weapons and blames Ukraine, though Kyiv and Western officials reject those claims. Show more Show less
